Four Years In the Rockies tells the story of Isaac P. Rose, who
went from greenhorn to legendary trapper at the height of the
fur-trade in the 1830s. His narrative features a who's who of early
American West figures like Jim Bridger, Kit Carson and Nathaniel
Wyeth, and features many memorable sequences such as the trader's
rendezvous, fights with Native Americans and countless details not
in mainstream history books - for example, how Kit Carson found his
wife. Four Years In the Rockies is a definitive look at the era of
the fur-trappers and is a must-read for anyone interested in the
history of the American West.
