Col. J.C. Fremont was a military officer, explorer and the first
republican candidate to run for US President. From 1838 to 1841 he
worked on many expeditions exploring and mapping the western
portions of the United States. In 1842 Kit Carson and 25 men went
with Freemont to explore the South Pass. "The country thus explored
is daily making deeper and more abiding impressions upon the minds
of the people, and information is eagerly sought in regard to its
natural resources, its climate, inhabitants, productions, and
adaptation for supplying the wants and providing the comforts for a
dense population. The day is not far distant when that territory,
hitherto so little known, will be intersected by railroads, its
waters navigated, and its fertile portions peopled by an active and
intelligent population." is a quote from the preface to the book.
