Nearly every memoir of American Westward Expansion is rife with adventure, hardships, and deprivation. Few can match the wild-west roughness of E.S. Carter's 1896 narrative.
During a trip across the plains and mountains, wars with Indian tribes, experiences in the rough-and-tumble gold fields of California,and five years traveling in New Mexico, Carter lived enough adventure for ten lives.
In his simple, unadorned style, he sets down a riveting story of people he met, near misses he encountered, and the hardships of pioneering.
For the first time, this long-out-of-print book is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
