A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt was that of Mr. Robert Stuart, in the employ of John Jacob Astor.

He was a young man, and although he had never crossed the Rocky Mountains, he had already given proofs, on other perilous expeditions, of his competence for the new duty. His companions were Ben Jones and John Day,[3] both Kentuckians, two Canadians, and some others who had become tired of the wild life, and had determined to go back to civilization.

When they reached the Snake River deserts, great sandy plains stretched out before them. Only occasionall
