Limited Edition. Hardcover.
#320 of a Limited Edition of 350 copies. Signed by both editors on the half title. The fifth publication of the Oregon Book Society.
The editors describe this work as notable not only for its literary qualities but because Neall describes events & persons in the Oregon country in a time in which comparatively little is known and because it recalls the California gold rush from the point of view of a San Francisco merchant rather than a ubiquitous miner.
