Typographical border. Card verso with departure dates for Japan Hong Kong Sydney Auckland & PNW ports. 5-13/16" x 3-1/4" The Pacific Mail Steamship Company was founded in 1848 as a joint stock company under the laws of the State of New York. The company founders had acquired the right to transport mail under contract from the United States Government from the Isthmus of Panama to California. The company initially believed it would be transporting agricultural goods from the West Coast but just as operations began gold was discovered in California and business boomed almost from the start. During the California Gold Rush in 1849 the company was a key mover of goods and people and played a key role in the growth of San Francisco California. In 1867 the company launched the first regularly scheduled trans-Pacific steamship service with a route between San Francisco Hong Kong and Yokohama and extended service to Shanghai. This route led to an influx of Japanese and Chinese immigrants bringing additional cultural diversity to California. A rare survivor from the era documenting the firm's Far East routes. unknown books

The articles of incorporation of the famed northwest railroad that would later help build the fortune of railroad magnate James J. Hill. Built too quickly the Northern Pacific traversed poor land and ran on ill- constructed rails. By 1896 the success of James J. Hill's Great Northern allowed Hill and his associated to buy the Northern Pacific and merge it with the Great Northern. Throughout the remaining industrial revolution and into the early 20th century the Great Northern was the main transporter of lumber coal and taconite loads from their sources to St. Paul and Minneapolis where they would continue east or be shipped by barge down the Mississippi. unknown books

Wrapper edges chipped minor soiling and tanning to wrappers spine partially chipped old vertical fold to pamphlet. Light foxing and tanning and occasional soiling throughout Map with a few small closed tears at cross-folds with no loss. About very good. This copy is inscribed on the front wrapper: "With Regards of James Tilton C.E." Tilton 1819-78 was then chief engineer of the Washington Division of the Northern Pacific Railroad. Thanks in part to his support for Franklin Pierce's presidential campaign Tilton was appointed the first Surveyor General of Washington Territory and served from 1853-61. Both the Tilton River and Fort Tilton near Fall City Washington are named for him. An important report to Congress by the Northern Pacific Railroad headed by Minnesota railroad magnate James J. Hill for federal aid to support the Railroad's expansion to the West Coast. The petition reviews the railroad's original charter printing with it a memorial from the NPRR's Board of Directors and supporting communications from military figures including Montgomery Meigs and Ulysses S. Grant. Since the early 1850s Edwin Johnson described by Wheat as a "visionary" engineer had been associated with the plan to build a railroad across the northern part of the United States from the Great Lakes to the Pacific Coast. In 1867 he was named chief engineer of the Northern Pacific and this memorial is a work of major importance for the history of the railroad. It includes Johnson's topographical survey of the route to the Pacific a discussion of potential problems that may be encountered and a detailed economic and military survey of the area in justification of construction. The exceptional large folding "Map of the Country from Lake Superior to the Pacific Ocean from the Latest Explorations and Surveys" was produced by the Colton firm in New York. One of the finest maps of the region to date it shows the area from Detroit to the Pacific well into Canada and south to about the 39th parallel. Johnson has drawn the route of the Northern Pacific from Lake Superior to Washington Territory where the line splits with one branch heading toward Fort Vancouver and the other to Puget Sound. Among the details shown on the map are the Pony Express route wagon routes and overland mail routes exploration routes and other proposed railroad routes the locations of Indian tribes mineral deposits military forts and much more. Wheat gives a long description of the map and remarks that "the detail of such a map defies cataloging." Construction on the Northern Pacific Railroad began in 1870 and was completed in 1883. Edwin Johnson did not see its completion dying in 1872. An edition of this report with the supporting documents and map was also privately published in Hartford. A significant early account of railroad expansion in the Northwest. We could find only ten copies listed in OCLC and this is the first copy we have seen in wrappers and with a presentation from an important engineer on the project. RAILWAY ECONOMICS pp.242-43.
