The Romance of the Colorado River

PREFACE
9/29

Geo.
M.Wheeler's report on Explorations West of the 100th Meridian.

The trappers and prospectors who had some experience on the Green and the Colorado have left either no records or very incomplete ones.

It seems tolerably certain, however, that no experience of importance has escaped notice.

So far as attempts at descent are concerned, they invariably met with speedy disaster and were given up.
In writing the Spanish and other foreign proper names I have in no case translated, because such translations result in needless confusion.

To translate "Rio del Tizon" as Firebrand River is making another name of it.
