Authors

  • Thomas W. Prosch

Abstract

"Fifty years ago the War Department of the general government was deeply interested in roads to the newly-created Territory of Washington, from California through Oregon, and from Minnesota and other Eastern points… The rapid development of the Pacific Coast country was making imperative closer connection with the States of the Mississippi Valley and those of the Atlantic beyond."
