Beschreibung

A Tour On The Prairies is a travelogue written by the famous American author, Washington Irving. The book is a first-person account of Irving's journey through the American West in the 1830s. Irving's journey takes him from Missouri to Oklahoma, and he describes the landscape, flora, and fauna of the region, as well as the Native American tribes he encounters. He also provides a glimpse into the lives of the settlers who were beginning to populate the area during this time. The book is a fascinating account of a bygone era in American history and is filled with Irving's trademark wit and humor. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the American West or the works of Washington Irving.Nothing, however, could restrain the romantic ardor of the Count for a campaign of buffalo hunting with the Osages, and he had a game spirit that seemed always stimulated by the idea of danger. His travelling companion, of discreeter age and calmer temperament, was convinced of the rashness of the enterprise; but he could not control the impetuous zeal of his youthful friend.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
