Publisher's Synopsis

The book ""The Uses of the Camel: Considered with a View to His Introduction into Our Western States and Territories"" was written by Joseph Warren Fabens in 1865. The book explores the potential benefits of introducing camels to the western states and territories of the United States. Fabens argues that camels could be used for transportation, particularly in areas where traditional modes of transportation such as horses and wagons were not practical. He also suggests that camels could be useful in the military, as they are strong and able to carry heavy loads over long distances. The book includes descriptions of the habits and characteristics of camels, as well as information on how they have been used in other parts of the world. Overall, ""The Uses of the Camel"" is a fascinating look at an alternative mode of transportation and an exploration of the potential benefits of introducing a new species to a region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
