Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In 'Palmer's Journal of Travels Over the Rocky Mountains, 1845-1846,' Joel Palmer offers a riveting first-hand account of the American West during a pivotal era of exploration and settlement. His narrative is characterized by vivid imagery and meticulous detail, exemplifying the Romantic literary style as he captures the dramatic landscapes and diverse encounters along the Oregon Trail. The journal not only serves as a travelogue but also reflects the broader context of Manifest Destiny and the restless spirit of 19th-century America, highlighting the hopes and challenges faced by pioneers venturing into the uncharted territories of the Rocky Mountains. Joel Palmer was a key figure during the era of westward expansion, having migrated from Ohio to Oregon himself. His background as a surveyor and his experiences with Native American tribes informed his perspectives on the land and its inhabitants. Palmer's writing is imbued with both the excitement of exploration and a profound respect for the native cultures he encountered, providing valuable insights that transcend mere travel observations and delve into the complexities of American identity and colonialism. This journal is indispensable for readers interested in American history, literature, and the human experience of exploration. Palmer's articulate prose and unflinching honesty make his observations enduringly relevant, inviting readers to reflect on the legacies of expansionism and the foundational narratives of the American West. 152 pp. Englisch.
