Great care has been taken and much time spent in an endeavor to reach an accurate record and to make a correct it can hardly be expected that mistakes have not crept in. The writer also wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to all who have so kindly furnished him with information and assist ance and in particular to Miss Mary E. Briggs, of affectionate memory, from whom much of the historical data was obtained, and to Mr. N. L. Goodrich, the writer's son. Of the illustrations, the view from Noon Peak was taken by MI. E. H. Lorenz; the others are from the author's photos. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
