Travel diary, 1894 Jun-Oct.

Journal of a pleasure trip to Yellowstone, Alaska, and Banff. Eliza Clendenin describes her travels from St. Louis by train and steamship to Minneapolis, Yellowstone Park, Montana, Washington, Alaska, Canada, Oregon, and California. She writes of dinners, dancing, sightseeing, restaurants and hotels, and people she and her party befriend in their travels. Cities and places visited and described by Clendenin include Minneapolis; Helena, Montana; Spokane; Seattle; Lake Cushman; Juneau; Fort Wrangel, Alaska; Tacoma; Portland, Oregon; the Lick Observatory; San Francisco; and Monterey. In Helena, their party is visited by Charles M. Russell, presumably a friend from St. Louis, and there are three pencil sketches by Russell on pages of the diary. An 1890 photograph of Eliza Clendenin and Edward M. Russell (by photographer F. W. Guerin of St. Louis) accompanies the volume.
