- Notes: This epistolary work was first published French in Paris in 1858. Although the copyright reads 1859, it was not published until at least 1863. "Two of Father de Smet's journeys described here are especially worth noticing. The first is his visit to the Sioux in September and October of 1848; and the second is the description of the 'Grand Desert' in 1851"--Wagner-Camp 308:2; Howes D289; Sabin 82277.
