Item description from seller

Scarce copy of Trail Magazine with an article by Robert Brewster Stanton, in which he evaluates the evidence for James White's claims to have been the first Anglo man to have floated the Grand Canyon, before John Wesley Powell. This article was published several years before Stanton's death and thirteen years before the posthumously-published Colorado River Controversies. Not listed in Farquhar's Grand Canyon bibliography. Only six copies listed in OCLC. Appears to have been mailed at some point due to postage stamp and ink address on front wrap. Booklet has an overall crease that is lightly rubbed on front wrap, a few dogeared corners.; Book; 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall.
