All edges gilt, marbled endpapers, ribbon marker, color frontispiece, illustrations, notes, appendix. "Nothing that I can say here will blind the reader to the deficiency of these pages; they are in truth, as their title expresses, the recollections of a 'Journal burnt,' and I present here but an outline of what I have seen or heard during three years of my life; and if I am wanting in figures and statistics and anything of weight as regards the country written of, it is certainly because I recalled this Journal unexpectedly, and far from the scenes it once depicted" - from the Preface. Journals of Frank Marryat. Illustrations by Frank Marryat. Locale: Western America. Series: Classics of the Old West. (Western America, History--United States, Journal, Memoir).
