W. T. Hamilton (2) (1822–1908)

I just soaked this book up. I really, really enjoyed it. Written by a mountain man who wrote this in the late 1800's after a lifetime being a mountain man in the north and southwest of what is now the USA. Amazingly erudite and superbly readable, romantic in the true sense of the word, and certainly counter to many of the myths about these men and the Indians.

I find this area magical and the history fascinating from and including Lewis and Clark and through the 1800's.

Superb, superb!… (meer)
