Western Americana
Rare books, documents, maps and photographs from across the American West beyond Colorado: New Mexico, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, Arizona, Kansas Territory and the Southwest. The history of Colorado never stopped at its borders. Miners, railroads, cattle and capital moved freely across the region, and much of the most interesting material concerns that wider West: early survey reports, military and territorial documents, accounts of Native peoples and Spanish colonial policy, cattle brand books and travel narratives. Each item is described with its author or issuer, date, edition and condition, and with notes on its importance and scarcity. Titles here have included J. Ross Browne’s Adventures in the Apache Country and Gustaf Nordenskiöld’s The Cliff Dwellers of the Mesa Verde. I am always glad to hear what you are looking for.
