TRAVELS THROUGH THE INTERIOR PARTS OF NORTH- AMERICA, IN THE YEARS 1766, 1767, AND 1768
by Carver, Jonathan
- Used
London: Printed for the author, 1778. [20],xvi,543,[1]pp. plus two folding maps and four plates. Contemporary calf, rebacked preserving original label. Later Scottish bookseller's label on front pastedown, later ownership inscriptions on titlepage. Minor toning. Very good. Carver went farther west than any British explorer before the Revolution. He was seeking a transcontinental waterway, but mainly explored tributaries of the Mississippi. His book, however, is often credited with being a catalyst for further exploration, influencing Mackenzie and Lewis and Clark. "A Plan of Captain Carver's Travels in the Interior Parts of North America" shows the headwaters of the Mississippi, lakes Michigan and Superior, and the land as far west as the Dakotas. The text contains the first mention of the word "Oregon." Includes material relating to the languages of a number of Indian tribes. A cornerstone early western travel narrative.
