Hardcover. Condition: Very fine. 1st Edition. First edition. Introduced and edited by Briton Cooper Busch. 364pp. Illustrations, maps, portraits. Bibliography, index. Light brown cloth, gilt. Top corners slightly bumped, else a fine copy. One of 975 copies. Captain Phelps arrived on the California coast in the later years of the… hide and tallow trade. He made 76 stops at eleven ports along the coast during the 1840-42 period. Phelps' diary gives a vivid picture of California settlements and settlers, the hide and tallow trade, and comments on agriculture, social customs, and political events. His journal relates visits to San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Monterey, San Simeon, San Luis Obispo, Cojo, Point Conception, Rufugio, Santa Barbara, and every other port south. His New England prejudices are much in evidence, but do not detract from the valuable insights and contacts which he had. [Clark and Brunet I: 186; Clark and Brunet II: 211]. Book.
