See Yost for a good description of this book and Cramer. Manuscript notations on several maps indicate this copy was used for several trips down the river. The Navigator was the first of a long run of guides to the western rivers. Repairs to some leaves. Book rebound with quarter leather and "Cramer's Mississippi Navigator" embossed on the spine.
