Heading:
Author: Johnston, Joseph Eggleston, et al.
Title: Reports of the Secretary of War, with Reconnaissances of Routes from San Antonio to El Paso... Also, the Report of Capt. R.B. Marcy's Route from Fort Smith to Santa Fe; and the Report of Lieutenant W.J.C. Whiting's Reconnaissances of the Western Frontier of Texas
Place Published: Washington
Publisher:Printed at the Union Office

The plates in the Simpson report make it an important American color plate book. Graff 2228; Howes J120; Jenkins 111; Raines p.128; Sabin 36377; Wagner-Camp 184; Wheat Transmississippi 677
