Eleven years in the Rocky Mountains and a life on the frontier/Illustrations

From Wikisource

Many of the illustrations were taken from the initial, 1877 edition of the book, for which the Internet Archive has higher quality page scans. The same illustrations were used in both the 1877 and 1881 editions (and also in Victor's earlier The River of the West.)
