ACCOUNT OF AN EXPEDITION FROM PITTSBURGH TO THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS, Performed in the years 1819, 1820, by Order of The Hon. J.C. Calhoun, Secretary of War: Under the Command of MAJOR STEPHEN H. LONG.  From the Notes of Major Long, Mr. T. Say, and other Gentlemen of the Exploring Party.  Compiled by Edwin James, Botanist and Geologist for the Expedition.  In Three Volumes.  London: Printed for Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Brown, Paternoster - Row.  1823.  This offering is a hybrid of both the American and British first editions.  The first American volumes (2) are bound in original leather with original tipped on spine titles.  The first British volumes (3) are bound in original boards with re-cased spines and tipped on spine titles.  Interior end-papers of first American volumes are original and have "Sempronium Library" handwritten on first end-paper.  End-papers of British volumes have been replaced; and, on title pages of each is stamped, "Long Island Historical Society."  All of these volumes have been properly and officially de-acquisitioned.

Volumes of the American edition are in very good plus condition; however, there is light foxing throughout.  The British volumes exhibit very little, if any, foxing, and are in near fine condition.  American volumes: Volume I, pages 1 - 503; Volume II, pages 1 - 442; plus, Astronomical and Meteorological Records and Vocabularies of Indian Languages, Taken on the Expedition for Exploring the Mississippi and Its Western Waters, under the Command of Major S. H. Long, of the United States Topographical Engineers, 1819 and 1820, Philadelphia, 1822, plus index.  British volumes: Volume I, pages 1 - 344, London: Printed by A. & R. Spottiswoods, New-Street-Square; Volume II, pages 1 - 356, London: Printed by A. & R. Spottiswoods, New-Street-Square; Volume III, pages 1 - 347, London: Printed by A. & R. Spottiswoods, New-Street-Square.

"... But never again as during that all too short period when he and I were one person, when the fulfilled future and the wistful past were mingled in a single gorgeous moment -- when life was literally a dream...."  F. Scott Fitzgerald, from 'Early Success,' The Crack Up, October 1937
