Original paper cover replaced with a facsimile. Pages are very clean, very nice
condition. The Northern Pacific Railroad was built during the years of
1872-1873. During those years, the country east of the Sierra Mountains and
west of the 100 Meridian (which runs through the middle of Texas and up through
North Dakota,) had an above average amount of rainfall. This resulted in a
false perception that the land was suitable for farming. Custer also noted and
reported the abundant amount of grass and vegetation on his 1873 expedition.
His reports along with the railroad's advertisements and lectures which were
designed to sell land and entice settlers to move west, painted that section of
the country as very productive and conducive to settlement. Hazen refutes these
accounts and claims by providing lengthy reports from officers and civilians
who had either passed through the country or who had lived there and
experienced the normal seasons which received little rainfall. Luther 31, Graff
