The first published account of Giovanni Capellini's scientific journey through North America in 1863, with particularly good material on Nebraska and the Missouri River frontier during the Civil War. Capellini sailed from Liverpool in August, stopped at Halifax, and continued to Boston and Cambridge, where Louis Agassiz and Jules Marcou assisted his preparations. He then traveled through Canada and the Midwest before reaching St. Joseph, Missouri, and moving north by steamboat into Nebraska. At St. Joseph he found the region troubled by guerrillas and the city under martial law; before leaving he had to obtain permission from the military command to purchase arms and ammunition. From there he traveled aboard the Denver to Omaha and explored from Council Bluffs northward through Florence, De Soto, Tekamah, Decatur, Blackbird, and the country around Sioux City before returning through Omaha, Bellevue, and Nebraska City. Capellini spent time among the Omaha and Ponca at Blackbird, recording village names, population figures, chiefs, houses, clothing, schooling at the Presbyterian mission, and objects he acquired. He met the Omaha leaders La Flèche and Ga-he-gu-zhi-ga, and describes the pressure of white settlement on the tribes, calling them people "for whom civilization means the same thing as death." He also relates the displacement of Winnebago people along the Missouri and gives an account of the steamer Alone's difficult journey toward the upper river, including Fort Pierre, Fort Berthold, Fort Union, encounters with Native groups, and freight intended for the new Idaho and Washington gold fields. .
