Written in pencil on the title page beneath the pseudonym Heclawa the following inscription appears: "From the author A. Lincoln Himmelwright" The upper edge of the title page bears the name of a previous owner in pencil. Also of interest facing page 172 is a photograph titled "The Return to Kendrick" of six horsemen surrounded by many men standing in front of a building. Someone has drawn in pencil an arrow connected to one of the horsemen to the author's name also written in pencil. Given how obscure the faces of anyone are in this photograph it would have been the author or someone with first hand knowledge to make this identification. 259 pages of text and appendices followed by a fold-out map of the "Clearwater Basin and adjoining Territory" of what is now Idaho and western Montana. Illustrated with a frontispiece eleven engravings eleven photographs and one line drawing. The author published this book using a pseudonym due to the controversy surrounding the discovery of this lost hunting party for leaving their cook George Colegate behind unable to walk and thinking he was close to death.
