Description
Because of his experience in the Southwest, Whipple was selected by the War Department to lead an expedition to investigate a possible railway route along the 35th parallel from Fort Smith, Arkansas, to Los Angeles. Möllhausen took part in this so-called Whipple expedition as a collector of natural objects and draughtsman. With great accuracy, the author describes his experiences, impressions and discoveries made on this journey through the western part of the North American continent.
