Senate Executive Document 59 Howes: 528 First edition.<br /><br />Survey of the watershed of the Canadian River and Red Fork of the Arkansas River in Indian Territory extending from Fort Smith to the border with Texas. The lands of the Cherokee Creek Seminole and Choctaw Indians are located. The map locates numerous forts including Smith Coffee Gibson and Old Fort Holmes and their connecting wagon roads. Talasee is shown at the site of Tulsa. This map was issued with the "Northern and Western Boundary Line of the Creek Country" report by Sitgreaves and Lt. J.C. Woodruff. The surveys were made in 1848 and 1850 but the report in which the map was issued wasn't published until 1858.<br /><br />After the conquest of New Mexico and California it was apparent that transportation and communications needed to be improved between these new territories and the rest of the United States east of the Mississippi. Geographical knowledge of most of this area particularly northwestern New Mexico now northern Arizona was very limited and inaccurate. Some maps of the day showed a river system that might provide a possible navigable water corridor between New Mexico and the Gulf of California via the Zuni Little Colorado and Colorado Rivers. In September of 1851 Captain Lorenzo Sitgreaves along with a small crew of topographers naturalists artists and support personnel and an escort of 30 infantrymen left the Zuni Pueblo in western New Mexico by pack train with instructions to explore and map the Zuni and Colorado Rivers and evaluate their navigability in light of a possible impending war with the Mormons in Utah. They traveled southwest along the Zuni River to its mouth and then headed northwest along the Little Colorado intending to follow it to the Colorado. When they reached Grand Falls northwest of present-day Winslow Arizona their guide Antoine Leroux advised them that it was unwise to follow the river any further because it flowed in a deep canyon for the rest of its course and emptied into the great canyon of the Colorado River. They left the river and struck off due west around the north side of the San Francisco Mountains discovering the Wupatki Indian Ruins along the way and looped southwestward around the south side of Bill Williams Mountain. The rest of their westward march followed near the future alignment of Route 66 to the Colorado River near the modern town of Bullhead City Arizona. After a difficult march south along the Colorado River they reached Camp Yuma on November 30. Of course Sitgreaves discovered that the Zuni and Little Colorado Rivers were not at all navigable and would be useless to transport troops and supplies. The Colorado River however was found to be navigable along the entire distance that he explored. Sitgreaves' official report "Report of an Expedition Down the Zuni and Colorado Rivers in 1851" was published in 1853.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />Foxing left margin trimmed as issued for folding all other plates present as called for in Howes as well as Lithographed map <i>Boundary of the Creek Country</i> laid in and not called for some folding.

22430No place or date. 8 x 12 cm illustration of a ship in polar waters cut from book or periodical with bold signature at bottom right: 'V. E. Fuchs 1968'. Laid down on piece of white paper. In fair condition but with slight bleeding of ink from signature towards foot of paper. Accompanying the item is an unsigned typed note by the recipient of the autograph on a 4to piece of paper. It reads: 'Antarctic Crossing The autograph of Sir Vivian Fuchs The first crossing of the Antarctic continent was completed at 1.47 p.m. on 2 March 1958 after a 2158 mile trek lasting 99 days from 24th Nov. 1957 from Shackleton Base to Scott Base via the Pole. The crossing party of twelve was led by Dr. now Sir Vivian Ernest Fuchs born 11th Feb 1908 As you can see in the picture it is of the R.R.S. Shackleton and that is why I got Sir Vivian Fuchs to autograph it.' Anthony Tucker in his Guardian obituary 13 November 1999 summed up Fuchs's achievements: 'Famous as the leader of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1957-58 during which he met Sir Edmund Hillary at the South Pole and carried out research which established the existence of a huge continental land mass beneath the polar ice cap Sir Vivian Fuchs . was one of the great adventurers scientist-explorers and expedition organisers of our time. He was director of the Falklands Islands Dependencies Survey from its creation in 1947 and from 1958-73 the continuing director of its successor the British Antarctic Survey BAS. His life spanned a period of massive transition in the nature and purposes of exploration.' No place or date. unknown
