Excerpt from The Essential Facts of Oklahoma History and Civics The discoveries of Columbus not only gave Spain a claim on the New World, but they aroused the spirit of adventure and the lust for gold, traits which were exceptionally strong in the Spanish people. In 1513 Balboa, in search for gold, discovered the Pacific Ocean and laid claim to all the lands touched by it. He claimed these undiscovered lands in the name of the king Of Spain.

In the Fall of 1832 Washington Irving took part in what he called "a month foray beyond the outposts of human habitation, into the wilderness of the Far West." As was his habit, Irving kept a memorandum book, which he later expanded into A Tour on the Prairies, a real-life Western adventure in the third decade of the nineteenth century. His account is fresh and clear. He saw and makes his readers see the frontiersmen, the trappers, the Indians, and the troopers as they actually were in the 1830s.
