These wood-engraved plates are from Voyage Pittoresque Dans Les Grands Déserts Du Nouveau Monde by Abbe Emmanual Domenech. Published by Morizot, Paris 1860.
Domenech was a missionary in Texas and Mexico and chaplain and almoner in the service of Maximilien, Emperor of Mexico. This particular work is based on a number of sources, including an earlier book Missionary Adventures in Texas and Mexico, but it is chiefly a compilation from Pacific Railroad reports, from which some of the plates were also taken.
