Download or read book Adventures in the Santa Fä Trade, 1844-1847 written by James Josiah Webb and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Josiah Webb left Independence, Missouri, in the summer of 1844 and headed down the Santa Fe Trail with goods bought in St. Louis. Although his first venture as a trader was a failure, he eventually made a fortune as a merchant in Santa Fe. Webb recorded his youthful experiences in 1888, and Ralph P. Bieber, a respected scholar and researcher on western expansion, edited and annotated his journal for publication more than forty years later. Long out of print, Adventures in the Santa Fe Trade is an entertaining and important source of first-hand information about the Santa Fe Trail and trade; trappers, Mexicans, and Indian tribes of the Old Southwest; and the impact of the Mexican War on southwestern trade.

Book Synopsis The Mexican War: A Military History Research Collection Bibliography by :
Download or read book The Mexican War: A Military History Research Collection Bibliography written by and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bibliography differs from the previous publications in this series since it concerns a specific time in American history, the Mexican War period from 1835 to 1850. From a military standpoint, the victorious efforts of American military forces can be considered as the proving ground for the Army and the Navy that emerged during the Civil War. The annexation of Texas and the acquisition of lands from Mexico predestined both the expansion of the United States to the Pacific and the conflict which divided brother from brother. This bibliography lists pertinent materials to be found in the Military History Research Collection related to this part of American history and is not intended to be a definite listing of bibliographic references on the period.
Book Synopsis The Old Santa Fe Trail by : Stanley Vestal
Download or read book The Old Santa Fe Trail written by Stanley Vestal and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1996-05-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Santa Fe Trail was one of the two great overland highways originating in Missouri in the nineteenth century. Several decades before settlers streamed over the Oregon Trail, traders were heading southwest. The caravans carried the wares of Yankee commerce; they returned loaded with buffalo robes and beaver pelts and the rich metals of Mexican mines. The thousand-mile journey “was a perilous cruise across a boundless sea of grass, over forbidding mountains, among wild beasts and wilder men, ending in an exotic city offering quick riches, friendly foreign women, and a moral holiday,” writes Stanley Vestal. Vestal begins where the trail does. He describes outfitting for the trip, the society formed for survival, the hunt for meat, landmarks, and the dangers. He evokes the history and legends surrounding the trail at every point, including figures like Kit Carson, Jedediah Smith, the Bent brothers, and Uncle Dick Wooton.

Book excerpt: The key to Doniphan's prominence as a Missouri attorney, military leader, politician, and businessman from the 1830s to the 1880s lay in his persistent moderation on the critical issues of his day. The author describes Doniphan's success as a brigadier general of the Missouri State Militia in the war with Mexico in 1846, his influence as a Missouri Whig, and his choice not to fight in the Civil War.

Book Synopsis Fort Union and the Santa Fe Trail by : Robert M. Utley
Download or read book Fort Union and the Santa Fe Trail written by Robert M. Utley and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fort Union was established in 1851 by Colonel Edwin V. Sumner in the Wolf Creek Valley of New Mexico. It was an important point on the Santa Fe Trail until 1879, when the coming of the railroad changed the trading patterns that had started with the trail in 1821. Evidence of the past, in the form of crumblings [sic] walls and eroding ruts cut by wagons traversing the prairies, may be seen at Fort Union National monument. Visitors may note that six miles to the south, the Mountain Branch of the Santa Fe Trail joined the Cimarron Branch, the ruts still visible from the entrance road to the monument. The author of this study, Robert M. Utley, first researched Fort Union while he was with the National Park Service. He revised and updated his earlier material on the historic site for this study. Since retiring from the Park Service in 1980, he has devoted his time to writing. Two of his nonfiction works, an account of the Lincoln County War in New Mexico and a biography of Custer, won back-to-back Western Heritage awards from the National Cowboy Hall of Fame in 1988 and 1989 -- Back cover.
