''Additional Estimate For Fort Kearney, South Pass, And Honey Lake Wagon Road'' is a historical document written by Frederick West Lander, an American explorer and civil engineer, in 1861. The book is a letter from the Acting Secretary of the Interior, in which Lander presents an estimate for the construction of a wagon road connecting Fort Kearney in Nebraska to South Pass in Wyoming and Honey Lake in California. The road was intended to facilitate westward expansion and improve communication between the East and the West. The estimate includes detailed information about the proposed route, the cost of materials and labor, and the projected timeline for completion. Lander also provides a thorough analysis of the economic and social benefits of the road, including increased trade and settlement in the region. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the challenges and opportunities of westward expansion in the mid-19th century. It provides valuable insights into the political and economic factors that shaped the development of the American West and the role of civil engineering in this process.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
