Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Ninth Printing. 294 Pages. This is an August 1982 First Bison Book printing of Yale University Press 1962 copyright. No defects noted on this otherwise As New book with flawless interior text. In 1846 Susan Magoffin, 18 years old and a bride of less than eight months, set out with her husband, a veteran Santa Fe trader, on a trek from Missouri through New Mexico and to Chihuahua, Mexico. Her journal describes the excitement, routine, and dangers of a successful merchant's wife. On the trail for fifteen months, moving from house to house and town to town, she became adept in Spanish and the lingo of traders, and wrote down in detail the customs and appearances of places she went. She gave birth to her first child during the journey. A valuable social and historical record of her encounters that gives a sparkling account of the beauties of the Southwest and its history and also signals a distinct change in American perception of Mexicans.

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Second printing [stated]. xxi, [1], 246, [6] pages. Color frontis. Footnotes. Maps. Appendix 1. The Pacific Squadron in 1846. Appendix 2. Muster Roll of the Portsmouth. Index. Minor soiling noted. Howard Roberts Lamar (born November 18, 1923) is a historian of the American West. In addition to being Sterling Professor of History Emeritus at Yale University since 1994, he served as Acting President of Yale University from 1992 to 1993. The second USS Portsmouth was a wooden sloop-of-war in the United States Navy in service during the mid-to-late 19th century. She was designed by Josiah Barker on the lines of a French-built privateer, and built at the Portsmouth Navy Yard, directly across the Piscataqua River from Portsmouth, New Hampshire. She was described as an improvement over USS Saratoga built in the same shipyard a year earlier. Portsmouth was launched on 23 October 1843 and commissioned on 10 November 1844, with Commander John Berrien Montgomery in command. Portsmouth had an important role during the Mexican-American War, seizing the port of Yerba Buena (today's San Francisco) from Mexico. She had set sail on 25 January 1845 from Norfolk, Virginia, on a cruise around Cape Horn to join the Pacific Squadron under the command of Commodore John D. Sloat. Upon arriving off the Departamento de Las Californias coast, with Lieutenant Benjamin F. B. Hunter as her Sailing Master, she was initially engaged in watching the movements of British vessels there to prevent the possibility of Great Britain acquiring the region during any conflict between the U.S. and Mexico. After the declaration of war with Mexico, a detachment of Marines under the command of Second Lieutenant Henry Bulls Watson rowed ashore on 9 July 1846, marched to the pueblo's main plaza, and raised the American flag, thereby seizing the city. In the square there is a US Flag and a commemorative plaque set by the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Book First Edition Signed
Hardcover. First edition. An association copy, inscribed by the editor on the title page: "For Howard Lamar, with pleasure and admiration, and with warmest thanks, Christiane Fischer, 23. IX. 1977." Lamar was an influential historian of the American West at Yale and was for two years the president of Yale. He wrote about the myths of the American West and its territorial histories. He provides a blurb for this book on its front flap. "In this book, Christiane Fischer sets the record straight by letting us see what the young west [sic]--particularly the territories that are now California, Nevada, and Arizona--looked like to the perceptive eyes of twenty-five women." Laid in are some publicity sheets. Very good in red buckram; in a very good jacket with browning to spine. A nice association.
