The expedition took place in 1871-1872 and covered the entire length of the Green-Colorado River from Wyoming to the Gulf of California. Dellenbaugh was a member of the expedition and his book provides a detailed and vivid description of the journey, including the challenges and dangers faced by the explorers. The book is filled with sketches and illustrations by the author, which add to the reader's understanding of the landscape and the people encountered on the journey.
