Item Details

Description

GIFT OF FUTURE VICE PRESIDENT HANNIBAL HAMLIN (WEST--UTAH.) Howard Stansbury. Exploration and Survey of the Valley of the Great Salt Lake of Utah. 3 folding maps (the two main maps hand-colored in outline), 57 lithographed plates. 2 volumes. 487 pages. 8vo, publisher's cloth, minor wear to main volume, second volume (containing only the two large folding maps) disbound and lacking backstrip; one plate detached, some closed tears and verso tape repairs to the folding maps; gift inscription on front free endpaper of text volume, later library bookplates, inked stamps, and duplicate notations. 32nd Congress, March 1851 special session, Senate Exec. Doc. 3. - Philadelphia, 1852

First edition. "Of particular interest were the newly established Mormon settlements, and the routes and passes through the Rockies and possibly a railroad"--Wagner-Camp 219:3. "A number of outstanding details . . . make the Stansbury expedition map one of the most important of its decade"--Wheat, Transmississippi West III, 764-5 and pages III:117-127.

The inscription on the front free endpaper reads, "Geo. B. Moore from Hon. H. Hamlin, Washington, March 1853." Though not in future Vice President Hannibal Hamlin's hand, it indicates a gift from him while he served as a United States Senator. The volume also has a 1921 bookplate indicating a gift from Mr. Scudney to the Taunton Public Library.
