Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Winning the Oregon Country
It is my privilege to tell you of men and women whose lives were filled with events as thrilling as any told of those who have gone to China or India or Africa or the islands of the sea. These events took place right here in our own continent. And the heroes were men and women who have a right to be named as pioneers with Daniel Boone and Kit Carson, or as patriots with Paul Revere and General Putnam.
