The Mountain Men and the Fur Trade of the Far West by LeRoy R. HafenMountain Men were the principal figures of the fur trade era, one of the most interesting, dramatic, and truly significant phases of the history of the American trans-Mississippi West during the first half of the 19th Century. These men were of all types-some were fugitives from law and civilization, others were the best in rugged manhood; some were heroic, some brutal, most were adventurous, and many were picturesque.This hardcover is in good condition.ISBN 10: 0870620207 / ISBN 13: 9780870620201Publisher: The Arthur H.
