Adventures in the Apache Country: A Tour Through Arizona and Sonora, with Notes on the Silver Regions of Nevada

535 pp. "John Ross Browne was one of the most accomplished writers to observe the West in its pioneer days. His colorful narrative provides, in the best Mark Twain tradition, both entertaining reading and vivid descriptions of his treacherous journey through Arizona and New Mexico in 1863, as well as his subsequent travels to Virginia City, the Comstock Lode and the mines of northern Nevada."--jacket
