Hamden, CT: Archon Books, 1977. First edition. Hardcover. An association copy, inscribed by the editor on the title page: "For Howard Lamar, with pleasure and admiration, and with warmest thanks, Christiane Fischer, 23. IX. 1977." Lamar was an influential historian of the American West at Yale and was for two years the president of Yale. He wrote about the myths of the American West and its territorial histories. He provides a blurb for this book on its front flap. "In this book, Christiane Fischer sets the record straight by letting us see what the young west [sic]--particularly the territories that are now California, Nevada, and Arizona--looked like to the perceptive eyes of twenty-five women." Laid in are some publicity sheets. Very good in red buckram; in a very good jacket with browning to spine. A nice association. Item #1172
