Pioneer Days: The Story Of An Adventurous And Active Life is a memoir written by Charles Leavitt Hyde. The book recounts the author's experiences growing up in the American West during the late 19th century, and his adventures as a young man exploring the frontier. Hyde's story begins with his childhood in Colorado, where he lived with his family on a ranch. He describes the challenges of life in the West, including harsh weather conditions, dangerous wildlife, and the need to be self-sufficient. As he grows older, Hyde becomes increasingly interested in exploring the wilderness around him, and he sets out on a series of expeditions to discover new landscapes and wildlife.Throughout the book, Hyde shares his encounters with Native American tribes, including the Ute and Navajo, and reflects on the complex relationship between settlers and indigenous people during this time. He also discusses his involvement in the mining industry, and the challenges and rewards of working in this field.Pioneer Days is a fascinating account of life in the American West during a time of great change and exploration. Hyde's vivid descriptions of the landscape, wildlife, and people he encountered bring this era to life, and his reflections on the challenges and rewards of pioneering provide valuable insights into the history of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
