The narrative covers Fowler's expedition from Fort Smith through various territories, including Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, and New Mexico, in 1821-22. The text provides a firsthand account of the challenges faced and observations made by the author and his companions as they navigate uncharted territories and encounter both natural obstacles and indigenous peoples. The opening of the journal introduces readers to the initial stages of this adventurous journey, beginning on September 6, 1821. Jacob Fowler describes crossing rivers, traversing rich lands, and encountering both wildlife and challenging terrain, often while battling harsh weather conditions. As the party progresses, they set up camps, forage for food, and contend with the perils of travel, such as losing pack animals and maintaining supplies. The narrative is characterized by Fowler's detailed descriptions and personal reflections, immersing readers in the hardships and triumphs of early American exploration.
