"Stirred by the omission of the names of the Howlands and Dunn from the Powell memorial monument at Grand Canyon, and by lack of faith in Powell's own statements, Bass presents here previously unpublished passages from a manuscript written long after the event by Hawkins, one of the original Powell party. To this is added White's letter of 1867, offered in proof of White's priority in the Grand Canyon. Useful but not entirely convincing documents" (Farquhar). 3-page foreword by George Wharton James. Farquhar, Colorado, 49. Howes B229. A very good copy. (#167616).
