Wanderings in South America: The North-West of the… by Charles Waterton

An interesting if at times rambling account of Charles Waterton's...well...his wanderings in South America, &c. The passages dealing with the US Pacific Northwest are revealing. The illustrations by Charles Livingston Bull are a treasure.
