In 1805 Pike then an army lieutenant led a 20-man exploring party to the headwaters of the Mississippi River with instructions to discover the river s source negotiate peace treaties with Indian tribes and assert the legal claim of the United States to the area. <br /><br />Pike traveled 2000 miles by boat and on foot from St. Louis Missouri to Leech and Sandy lakes in northern Minnesota. He erroneously identified Leech Lake as the river s source. <br /><br />In July 1806 Pike was dispatched to the Southwest to explore the Arkansas and Red rivers and to obtain information about the adjacent Spanish territory. Pike established an outpost near the site of present-day Pueblo Colorado and then led his party northwest where they encountered the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. After trying unsuccessfully to scale the mountain peak later named for Pike the party proceeded southward to northern New Mexico where they were apprehended by Spanish officials on the charge of illegal entry into New Mexico. They were escorted across Texas to the Spanish American border at Natchitoches Louisiana where on July 1 1807 they were released.</p><p>Pike s report on Santa Fe with information noting particularly the military weakness of the capital and the lucrativeness of the overland trade with Mexico stimulated the expansionist movement into Texas.<br /><br /><strong> Condition:</strong></p><p>Rebound.

His Pike expedition mapped much of the southern portion of the Louisiana Purchase. Pike was born in Lamberton New Jersey now a part of Trenton. His father also named Zebulon Pike was an officer in the Continental Army under General George Washington and served in the United States Army after the end of the Revolutionary War.</p><p>The younger Pike grew to adulthood in a series of Midwestern outposts-the frontier of the United States at the time-in Ohio and Illinois. He joined his father's regiment as a cadet in 1794 earned a commission as ensign in 1799 and a first lieutenancy later that year. Pike married Clarissa Harlow Brown in 1801 and continued his military career in logistics and payroll at a series of frontier posts.</p><p>His career was taken up by General James Wilkinson who had been appointed Governor of the Upper Louisiana Territory. In 1805 Wilkinson ordered Zebulon Pike to find the source of the Mississippi River. Nearly immediately upon his return Pike was ordered out once again to lead an exploratory expedition to find the headwaters of the Arkansas River and Red River. Near St. Louis on July 15 1806 Pike led what is now known as "the Pike expedition" from Fort Bellefontaine to explore the southwest. Pike never successfully reached the summit of the famous peak that bears his name Pikes Peak. He attempted it in November 1806 made it as far as Mt. Rosa to the southeast of Pikes Peak and gave up the ascent in waist-deep snow after having gone almost two days without food. This journey for which he is most remembered ended with his capture on February 26 1807 by Spanish authorities in northern New Mexico now part of Colorado. Pike and his men were taken to Santa Fe then to Chihuahua where he appeared before the Commandant General Salcedo. Salcedo housed Pike with Juan Pedro Walker a cartographer who also acted as an interpreter and as a transcriber/translator for Pike's confiscated documents. It was while with Walker that Pike had access to various maps of the southwest and learned of Mexican discontent with Spanish rule. Pike and his men were released under protest to the United States at the Louisiana border on July 1 1807.</p><p><strong>Condition:</strong> Extremities rubbed title to volume one detached unread with the pages needing to be separated else very good.
