The fertile imagination of the author affords the opportunity to travel along as a British business man buys his steamboats, fills them with a fascinating group of trappers, freed slaves, hunters, ship's Captains and Pilots, rescued Indian children and the first white wives and children to travel among marauding Indians and mountain men who were intent on capturing and reselling them. The construction and populating of the most westerly fort and fur trading post on the Missouri is a well told story of the northwestern frontier complete with buffalo hunts and warfare with tribes on land and on the rivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Brickwedel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1774192152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781774192153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e John Brickwedel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/18\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.59d","brand":"John Brickwedel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48519341146367,"sku":"9781774192153","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fb920314-81a7-48f0-ba02-7a8e23c0fad6.jpg?v=1778737296","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/up-the-missouri-john-brickwedel-9781774192153","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
