    The final portion of the book—Leaves from a journal entitled “The Tacuru”—is written in a lighter vein. It describes a trip through some of the Northern lands of the Santa Fe Land Company, and it is included because, although frankly humorous, it contains much really useful information and many capital illustrations. I should, however, mention that this journal was written by members of the expedition, and was originally intended solely for their own private edification and amusement; therefore all the happier phases of the trip are noted; but I can assure my English readers that the trip, well though it was planned, was not all luxury. To the many who have helped me in this work I tender my most sincere thanks. CAMPBELL P. OGILVIE. Lawford Place, Manningtree, Essex, December, 1910.
