Narrative of the Texan Santa Fe Expedition

First-edition sets are bound in blind-stamped brown cloth with gilt spine titles; the first-state binding has "1844" gilt-stamped at the foot of the spine, while a second state has "1845" at the spine foot instead, even though the sheets and title pages of both remain dated 1844 -- the spine date is a binding variant, not a separate printing, and the two volumes of a single set are sometimes found in mismatched states
