Discovery of the Yosemite, and the Indian War of 1851, Which Led to That Event is a historical book written by Lafayette Houghton Bunnell in 1880. The book is a personal account of Bunnell's experiences as a member of the Mariposa Battalion, which was sent to explore and survey the Yosemite Valley in 1851. Bunnell's book provides a detailed description of the geography, flora, and fauna of the Yosemite Valley, as well as the customs and way of life of the Native American tribes that inhabited the area. He also recounts the conflicts that arose between the Mariposa Battalion and the Native American tribes, including the Ahwahneechee, which ultimately led to the displacement of the tribes from their ancestral lands.The book is an important historical document as it sheds light on the early exploration and settlement of the Yosemite Valley by Euro-American settlers. It also provides insight into the attitudes and beliefs of the time towards Native American peoples and their lands. Overall, Discovery of the Yosemite, and the Indian War of 1851, Which Led to That Event is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American West, Native American studies, or environmental history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
