The forty-two drawings are arranged according to their five general subjects: California Native Americans (7), California landscapes (24), Mexico (4), Central America (6), and Other (1). Although the exact Indian tribes in Brown's drawings are not known, it is believed that they are the Maidu, Nomlaki, Patwin, Wintun, and /or the Shasta. The California landscape drawings include views of San Francisco, Mount Shasta, Marysville, Grass Valley, mining camps, the Sacramento River, and Nevada City. The scenes of Mexico and Central America include Acapulco, the Gulf of California, Nicaragua, Guatemala, and El Salvador. The drawings are dated 1851 and 1852. There is one undated drawing of the Susquehanna River in Port Deposit, Maryland.
