Abstract
The United States Geographical Surveys West of the 100th Meridian produced a published album of original albumen prints from expeditions in 1871-73, photographed by Timothy O'Sullivan (1840-1882), a Civil War photographer, and William Bell (1830-1910). Additional photographs from the Survey appeared in special atlases published to accompany official reports, acquired routinely by the Library as government documents. Includes engraved title page.
