Description:
1908.. Disbound . BINDING/CONDITION: This is strictly a working copy, and if it were mine, I would dismantle it further. The binding is gone; and the preliminary text pages are in very poor condition with tears and brittle paper. The map paper is of better quality. However, it requires two people to unfold a map as-is, with them bound into the book, and it's not easy then. It appears to me that other than the index and one other, most of the maps have never been opened. The index map has some damage -- sadly some caused by me trying to get an idea of what was what. I tried to open it alone. Don't do that. Maps are all verified as being present (they are numbered).. 8vo (9 inches tall) . Description: 60th Congress 2d Session 1908-1909; House Documents Vol. 24; Examination and Survey of Sacramento River. Since this copy is disbound, much of the information is missing; assuming this published by the Government Printing House; the only thing that remains of the original spine is a strip with the…

BINDING/CONDITION: red cloth with gilt spine text; a Fine book, with a Near Fine dust jacket.. 8vo (about 9.5 inches tall) . Bibliography, index. Description: Includes a frontis plus four additional black and white plates, and one single-sided. From the jacket blurb: ''The San Gabriel Valley a few miles east of Los Angels was the site of the Rancho Azusa. Henry Dalton played a key role in the history of this whole region, and his diary from the Rancho provides an intimate glimpse of pioneer life in this region. The California revolt of 1846 is vividly depicted in Dalton's personal correspondence. Stories of the first cattle drive to northern California the gold rush of 1848-49, and the later rush in San Gabriel Canyon all reveal fascinating and valuable accounts of California history.'' Originally published in 1977, this is the second printing.
