content: This series consist of Ewers files relating to his scholarly edition of Jean Louis Berlandier's manuscript of his travels through Texas in the 1828.  Berlandier was a French Scientist traveling with a Mexican scientific expedition to determine the boundary between Mexico and the United States and to gather information on the geography and natural resources of Texas.  Berlandier was a botanist and zoologist.  Ewers believed Berlandier to be an objective observer of and descriptive writer on the Indians of Texas during the frontier period.  This series contains correspondence, notes, manuscripts, photographs, and translations of the original text.
