Bound typescript describing the travel to northern Colorado by Isabel Anderson, American diplomat Larz Anderson, Sam Culbertson, Jack Story, Jane Story, and a Captain Stewart, of Boston, Massachusetts, in September 1920. The typescript was written by an unidentified member of the group. The party travelled in a private railroad car, the "Manhattan," to Colorado, and toured Denver, Glenwood Springs, Rifle, Meeker, and other locations by automobile. From Elk's Lodge in the White River Valley, the group took overnight camping trips on horseback, accompanied by guides, and rode from the lodge across the Flat Tops to Glenwood Springs, where they met the "Manhattan" for their return to Boston. The volume contains 42 leaves of photographs, the majority of which were taken during the camping trips.

1 v. (17 p., [42] leaves of plates) ; 29 cm.
