Describes Howland's trip to the south-western United States and northern and central Mexico. Recurring themes include observations on local Mexican customs, especially those of the indigenous peoples; plant life; and other travelers Howland met along the way. Reflects on the westward expansion of the United States and the dispossession of Native Americans, opining that "prosperity and growth founded on injustice are not the true and lasting kind." Also includes a record of Howland's expenses. Journal entries should be read from the back of the volume to the front.
