Pages are very clean and intact except for light to moderate age toning and slight wear to extremities. A Very Good copy. Sources of Northwest History No. 6. Part of the "Historical Reprints" series. "Reprinted from the Historical Section of The Frontier and Midland, a magazine of the Northwest, published at The State University of Montana, Missoula. Vol. IX, No. 3, March, 1929." This historical reprint contains the manuscript written by Richard Owen Hickman during his journey west to California from Independence, Missouri in 1852. The manuscript contains diary entries Hickman kept on the trip. He eventually sent the manuscript to his stepmother, Elizabeth Hickman.

Hickman describes the local scenery, the many graves he saw on the trail, a buffalo hunt gone wrong, the changes in weather, cholera outbreaks that plagued many emigrants, Courthouse Rock, Chimney Rock, Scott's Bluff, the Platte River, a Cheyenne chief who was supposedly 105 years old, disagreeable buffalo meat, how their oxen became trapped in swamp (but were later rescued), how members of the Snake (?) tribe use dogs and wolves as pack animals and how some of those wolves carried babies on their backs, trading with members from Indigenous tribes, braving snowy weather, Pyramid Valley, various soda springs, the Truckee River, Pyramid Lake, Nevada City, and Sacramento.

In 1863, Richard returned to Illinois on account of ill health. However, he ventured west multiple times again, finding himself in places such as Montana, Virginia City, Portland, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Richard eventually settled in Montana where he held several prominent positions including territorial treasurer, a member of the territorial legislative assembly, and state land agent.…
