About This Item
1860 Life of Kit Carson American Expeditions INDIANS Hunting John C Fremont
Kit Carson was one of the most famous American West frontiersmen, known for being an Indian Guide and Agent of the United States to work with native tribes. Carson's life was written about extensively throughout the 19th-century, including Charles Burdett's account. Burdett portrays Carson as a classic American folk hero, describing his expeditions westward, his trade ventures, learning to fight from Native American Indians, and his settling in Indian cultures. Other notable topics include Carson's buffalo and bear hunting excursions, as well as accounts of his involvement in John C. Fremont's expeditions.
