Dangers of the Trail in 1865: A Narrative of Actual Events (Classic Reprint) - nuovo libro

Excerpt from Dangers of the Trail in 1865: A Narrative of Actual Events

I present this narrative of actual events on a trip across the plains to Denver, Colorado, in 1865 and of life in the Far West in the later sixties.

An interesting and valuable feature is a map of the country, made in 1865, by Henry Bowles of Boston, showing the old Platte River and Smoky Hill Trails of that day before there was a railroad west of the Missouri River.

Everything is told in a plain but truthful manner, and this little volume is submitted to the reader for approval or criticism.
