Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Frederic Remington (illustrator). I'm betting that most people list this book as a first edition, due to the only date in it being the copyright date of 1892. But an examination of the list of other books by Richard Harding Davis, printed right there on the copyright page, would reveal the truth. This can't be from 1892 because that list includes books published AFTER 1892 - the last one not published until 1901. So the only thing we can say with certainty is that this copy is from 1901 or later. The book consists of eight essays by this prolific and influential journalist, each describing a part of his journey around the west. (The 'car' in the title is a train car, not a Buick!) The book is also profusely illustrated, including a frontispiece with tissue guard, by what looks to be two or three uncredited hands, one of which is Frederick Remington. This is a very good copy indeed, slightly faded on spine panel, and with minor browning to edges. There's a bookseller's label on front pastedown, but otherwise a clean tight copy. JS.
