Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Journal in America: 1837-1838
The greater part of the information which should be put before the reader is included in the historical introduction. It remains here to call attention to the editorial principles which have been used in the preparation of the manuscript for the press. As far as possible the original manuscript has been produced verbatim. Where it has been necessary to supply words or add letters in words in order to make the meaning clear the portion supplied is printed in brackets. A few slight errors have not been reproduced. The capitalization and punctuation in the original manuscript has been followed.
I am under obligations to the Burton Historical Collection of the Detroit Public Library for the loan of the manuscript. I owe much to Dr. George N. Fuller, Secretary of the Michigan Historical Commission, for valuable help and suggestions.
