About the Book
This 1967 Bantam Books paperback edition presents Francis Parkman’s vivid account of his 1846 journey across the Great Plains and the Rocky Mountains—one of the classic narratives of the American frontier. Blending travel writing with historical observation, Parkman documents buffalo hunts, encounters with the Sioux, and the rugged landscapes that defined the expanding West.
Across 298 pages, the narrative captures both the raw beauty of untamed wilderness and the cultural interactions that shaped frontier life. Parkman’s descriptive style immerses readers in the physical challenges, adventure, and complexity of westward exploration during a transformative period in American history. His work remains a valuable literary and historical record of 19th-century frontier experience.
Though the pages have naturally yellowed with time, the book remains in good reading condition. Compact in size (17 x 10 cm), this edition is ideal for collectors of classic travel narratives, students of American history, and readers interested in firsthand accounts of the early American West.
