This sixth editon was the second of the numerous editions of Bryant's important first-hand account of travels to the far west to contain the `small woodcut map' of the gold region, although there were more general maps in two earlier editions. Graff notes that "Although this is a faithful account of an overland journey, its usefulness was marred because there was no map. The lack was supplied starting with the fifth Edition." Wagner-Camp notes a map of California in the second English edition, and a map of the west in the third American edition, but the fifth edition is the first to contain the "untitled map of California Gold Region." This sixth edition should also have a Colton map of California, Oregon, Texas, etc., which was not issued in the fifth edition, but in the present copy it has been removed.
