Disputed North West Coast Claims and Columbia River History
A nineteenth century report details Britain and the United States claims over the North West Coast following the 1627 and 1818 conventions. It covers discovery by Captain Gray in 1792 and government expeditions in 1808, the role of the Utah doctrine, and the potential strategic value of the Columbia River for fur trade and Pacific commerce. It notes property values on the Pacific and fur fleets, and discusses legal principles on river ownership and navigation.
