"The narratives of Cox...are chief sources for fur-trading history in the early Oregon country" [Howes]. "This book is a well written description of the Oregon Country and the fur trade in the early period. Cox left Hawaii and arrived in Oregon with the Astoria party in 1812, later working for the Northwest Company" [Reese] .
