The Lakeside Press / R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co., Chicago, 1930. Hard Cover. No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Pattie's grandfather was a Revolutionary War veteran born in Caroline County, Virginia, in 1750. He moved to Kentucky at twenty-one and, along with other emigrant families, fought to wrest that rugged country from the Indians. His son, Sylvester, (James Pattie's father), endured the same horrors of Indian Warfare and fought in the War of 1812. This book details Pattie's travels further west, in the company of his father, to California and then down through Mexico and back. Title page of the original edition published by John H. Wood in Cincinnati in 1831 is included in this volume (fter M. M. Quaife's Historical Introduction), and the subtitle reads as follows: "During An Expedition From St. Louis Through The Vast Regions Between That Place And The Pacific Ocean, And Thence Back Through The City Of Mexico To Vera Cruz, During Journeyings Of Six Years In Which He And His Farther, Who Accompanied Him, Suffered Unheard Of Hardships And Dangers, Had Various Conflicts With The Indians, And Were Made Captives, In Which Captivity His Farther Died, Together With A Description Of The Country, And The Various Nations Through Which They Passed." 428 pages, dark red cloth boards with gilt publisher logo and line border on front, gilt titles on spine, top edge gilt, tissue covered frontispiece is an engraving of the burial of Mr. Pattie.
