Josiah Gregg , a man of rare sensitivity and passionate scientific interest, for ten years engaged as a Santa Fe trader. His copious notes on the life and landscape of the American prairies and the Mexican Plateau were utilized in writing this book. It is written as a scrupulously accurate guidebook to the prairies and as an authoritative account of the early Santa Fe trade.
