| 520 | _a"Mount Rainier, a Record of Exploration" by Edmond S. Meany is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work compiles various explorations and discoveries related to Mount Rainier, chronicling notable expeditions from the late 18th to the early 20th centuries and providing insights into the origins of place names in the region. This record is particularly valuable for those interested in the adventures and scientific observations associated with this iconic mountain. The beginning of "Mount Rainier, a Record of Exploration" introduces readers to the editor, Edmond S. Meany, and the purpose of the compilation. It highlights the growing interest in Mount Rainier National Park among tourists and details the 1915 encirclement of the mountain by a large company of travelers from The Mountaineers Club, who engaged in reading historical extracts around nightly campfires. The opening chapters discuss the mountain's discovery by Captain George Vancouver in 1792, along with subsequent exploration efforts, while setting the stage for a more in-depth exploration of the mountain's significance throughout history.
