Indian Wars and Famous Frontiersmen

Originally published in 1904, this book was intended to tell that important part of American history not found in the numerous histories of the United States - the small bodies of men and women, of sturdy and resolute character and sterling qualities, who were the mothers and fathers of America. This volume tells who they were and what part of our great country they originally settled, what they had to contend with - in many cases sacrificed their lives for the true principles involved.
