Based on a typed transcript of an original MS. owned by the Provincial Archives of British Columbia. The original is in 2 parts: a diary of a journey from Fort Gary [Winnipeg] to New Westminster, Apr. 29-Nov. 14, 1862; and a narrative, consisting of letters and other material about the journey. In the present work, the diary, virtually complete, is interwoven with excerpts from the narrative. Cf. p. ii-iii Limited ed. of 500 numbered copies
