Overview

"Journal of a Trapper" contains notes and extracts taken from Osborne Russell's journal during his time as a trapper in the Rocky Mountains between 1834 and 1843. Osborne Russell (1814 - 1892) was a politician and mountain man who notably helped form the government of the U.S. state of Oregon. Contents include: "Expedition Left Independence, Mo., April 28, 1834, Headed by Nathaniel J. Wyeth", "Meeting with Captain B. S. Bonneville and Party-Establishment of the Trading Post at Fort Hall", "Snake Valley, a Winter Resort for Trappers", "Hunting Party Suffers from Hunger", "One Member Lost", "Description of a Fall Hunt", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of dog breeding.
