Download or read book Jim Bridger written by Jerry Enzler and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even among iconic frontiersmen like John C. Frémont, Kit Carson, and Jedediah Smith, Jim Bridger stands out. A mountain man of the American West, straddling the fur trade era and the age of exploration, he lived the life legends are made of. His adventures are fit for remaking into the tall tales Bridger himself liked to tell. Here, in a biography that finally gives this outsize character his due, Jerry Enzler takes this frontiersman’s full measure for the first time—and tells a story that would do Jim Bridger proud. Born in 1804 and orphaned at thirteen, Bridger made his first western foray in 1822, traveling up the Missouri River with Mike Fink and a hundred enterprising young men to trap beaver. At twenty he “discovered” the Great Salt Lake. At twenty-one he was the first to paddle the Bighorn River’s Bad Pass. At twenty-two he explored the wonders of Yellowstone. In the following years, he led trapping brigades into Blackfeet territory; guided expeditions of Smithsonian scientists, topographical engineers, and army leaders; and, though he could neither read nor write, mapped the tribal boundaries for the Great Indian Treaty of 1851. Enzler charts Bridger’s path from the fort he built on the Oregon Trail to the route he blazed for Montana gold miners to avert war with Red Cloud and his Lakota coalition. Along the way he married into the Flathead, Ute, and Shoshone tribes and produced seven children. Tapping sources uncovered in the six decades since the last documented Bridger biography, Enzler’s book fully conveys the drama and details of the larger-than-life history of the “King of the Mountain Men.” This is the definitive story of an extraordinary life.

Download or read book Mount Vernon Love Story written by Mary Higgins Clark and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-09-04 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Always a lover of history, Mary Higgins Clark wrote this extensively researched biographical novel and titled it Aspire to the Heavens, after the motto of George Washington's mother. Published in 1969, the book was more recently discovered by a Washington family descendant and reissued as Mount Vernon Love Story. Dispelling the widespread belief that although George Washington married Martha Dandridge Custis, he reserved his true love for Sally Carey Fairfax, his best friend's wife, Mary Higgins Clark describes the Washington marriage as one full of tenderness and passion, as a bond between two people who shared their lives -- even the bitter hardship of a winter in Valley Forge -- in every way. In this author's skilled hands, the history, the love, and the man come fully and dramatically alive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faced with failing health and financial ruin, the Civil War's greatest general and former president wrote his personal memoirs to secure his family's future - and won himself a unique place in American letters. Devoted almost entirely to his life as a soldier, Grant's Memoirs traces the trajectory of his extraordinary career - from West Point cadet to general-in-chief of all Union armies. For their directness and clarity, his writings on war are without rival in American literature, and his autobiography deserves a place among the very best in the genre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Between People: The Metis of Central Montana is an historical documentation of the Metis (Native American and European ancestry) people fleeing persecution by the Canadian government over land and political issues, and the journeys that brought them to settle Central Montana beginning in 1879. The book examines the origin of the Metis people and their devout Catholic faith, subsequent involvement with Louis Riel and petitions for land grants, methods of economic provision, and the Metis role in establishing Lewistown and relationships with Granville Stuart and Fort Maginnis.The descendants of the early Metis settlers, Granville Stuart, and others were interviewed, sharing their personal accounts which were transcribed and included in this document. They discuss family histories and reveal untold stories about their ancestors and themselves. Strong work ethics, tough living, tragedy, elders closemouthed about the Native lineage, education, an unmarked mass Metis grave, military service and prejudice are subjects of discussion by the interviewees and make a most interesting read.

Download or read book Love in the Midst of COVID written by Mary Sheehy Moe and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-08 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When COVID-19 drove Americans into isolation in 2020, long-time educator Mary Sheehy Moe turned to the "3 R's" she knew best: reading, reflecting, and writing. Love in the Midst of COVID, originating as a series of Facebook posts, is the result."I'm afraid. You are too, right?" she wrote in March. "I'm afraid the test I've always wondered about, the test for my generation like the ones my parents' generation faced, and their parents' before them, has come at last. Our Depression. Our World War II. Our polio." Love in the Midst of COVID is at once a portrait of a fearful, politically turbulent time and a montage of the reflections of a grandchild of Irish immigrants, a child of the '60s, and a fiercely doting grandmother. In between the lines is a crib sheet for the tests of any turbulent time.
