Description
1872 1ed California Texas Indians American West New Mexico Arizona Powers



Stephen Powers was a 19th-century American journalist and adventurer who is best-remembered for his journey across the American west encountering Native American tribes from Texas to California. His book ‘Afoot and Alone’ is an incredible, illustrated account of this expedition with full-page engravings by True Williams.



According to Cowan,

“The author, later famous as a distinguished ethnologist, journeyed from Raleigh to San Francisco, a distance of 3,556 miles… his descriptions are entertaining and frequently amusing.”
