Handsomely printed on Corsican paper. According to CLARK & BRUNET, the Hafens had done prior work with the Arthur H. Clark Company, but their relationship was "fully established with the 15-volume Far West and Rockies Series."

A work of enduring quality and scholarship, this volume mined significant primary source material to supplement the Forty-Niners volume (II), particularly journals and correspondence. The index is indispensable for the extraneous people and places related to the various subjects of the volumes. Production run of this volume was 1,235 copies. CLARK & BRUNET, 104: XV.
