Two Volumes Bound in One. Hiram Martin Chittenden (1858-1917) was a
leading historian of the American West, especially the fur trade.
Epic in sweep and reach, strongly written and superbly researched,
"The American Fur Trade of the Far West" is an established classic
in the field of American History. Its first publication in 1902
made clear how much the fur trade was "indissolubly connected to
the history of North America." Chittenden brought to this enduring
work an appreciation of geography and a feeling for the lives and
times of colorful trappers and mountain men like Manuel Lisa,
William H. Ashley, the Sublette brothers, Jedediah Smith, Jim
Bridger, and Kenneth McKenzie. He provided a comprehensive view of
the fur trade that still remains sound. His history of the fur
trade has been highly influential among historians of the West.
