Publisher's Synopsis

Daylight Land is a travelogue written by W.H.H. Murray, originally published in 1888. The book is a detailed account of Murray's travels through the American West, specifically the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Northwest. Murray describes the landscapes, flora, and fauna he encounters, as well as the people he meets along the way, including Native American tribes and settlers. The book also includes anecdotes about Murray's experiences, such as his encounters with grizzly bears and his participation in a buffalo hunt. Daylight Land is not only a travelogue, but also a reflection on the importance of nature and the need for conservation. Murray's vivid descriptions and personal reflections make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the American West and its natural beauty.The Experiences, Incidents, And Adventures, Humorous And Otherwise, Which Befell Judge John Doe, Tourist, Of San Francisco; Mr. Cephas Pepperell, Capitalist Of Boston; Colonel Goffe, The Man From New Hampshire, And Divers Others, In Their Parlor-Car Excursion Over Prairie And Mountain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
