Memorandum And Account Book, Niklaus Dürst

Swiss American Historical Society Review

For years Diirst's notebook has been archived at the Wisconsin State Historical Society in Madison. After Robert Elmer inspected it he provided a copy to Leo Schelbert who transcribed the difficult to read text and translated it literally. Urspeter Schelbert then revised the transcription, and the translation was adapted to his emendations. Italic numbers were added to each entry in the English translation for reference from the accompanying article on Durst' s trip to the United States.
