Pacific Railroad Surveys

From: "Kevin Bill" kbill@ktmautomation.com, kbill2@mc.net

After cleaning out "Mother's attic," I have in my possession a copy of what seems to be Volume 4 of Lieutenant A.W. Whipple's Corp of Topographical Engineers report to the 33rd congress dated 1856. It contains many botanical illustrations as well as astronomical and climatological observations.

I ... would appreciate any information on this book and if many copies still exist.

See information about the Pacific Railroad Surveys.

These volumes are rare, but are not difficult to find. There is considerable variation in pricing. Take a look at volumes currently offered for sale to get a general idea of pricing.
