Fine in gray-tan cloth covered boards with bold gilt text on the spine with map end papers and an image of the front and rear halves of the Jefferson Peace Medal on the front and rear boards. Without a dust jacket as issued; however, the book is contained within a fine illustrated paper covered slip case which also contains the companion CD produced by National Geographic which is housed in a fine chemise. 346 pages of text. The 46th edition of the Westvaco American Classic Series which is a reprint of Noah Brook's' book which was first published in 1901 which became the first popular, and readable, account of the expedition. An uncommon publication and especially so in such nice condition with the CD which is often missing from the set when found at all. (Inventory #: TB28355)
