Kansas; its interior and exterior life is an 1857 account of Kansas Territory by Sara T. L. Robinson, published in Boston, Cincinnati and London for readers following the slavery conflict there. Its two plates are engravings after sketches, one showing a group of figures and wagons on a plain beneath a gray sky, the other a rough line of riders and cattle across open grassland, offering a designer dense hatched landscape and crowd scenes for atmospheric backgrounds.
