This database is the second volume of the collection. Commissioned by the War Department, the expedition traveled up the Minnesota River, around Lake Winnepeg, and then east to Lake Superior. This volume focuses on the region\'s topography, geology, and climate. It contains detailed climactic data collected from several military outposts and a log of astronomical events in the early 1820s. Additionally, it provides a brief history of the area and an evaluation of the complex relations between the Native Americans of the area, the United States government, and intruding white settlers. For researchers of early Minnesota climate and history, this narrative can be a interesting and informative.'); }
