First Edition. #19 of 50 Numbered and Signed Copies Bound in Leather. 300pp. Illustrations. 5 Maps. Milligan kept the only day-to-day journal of Fremont's fifth expedition, other than Fremont's. Due to conflict between the two men, Milligan was ordered to leave when they reached Bent's Fort. Lucky for him given the disastrous outcome of that infamous expedition. The journal continues and provides an uncommon insight into day-to-day life at Bent's Fort. Very interesting. As New in plain, unprinted dust jacket, as issued. Original prospectus laid-in.
