Photographs and text weave together many strands of Wyoming's frontier history in this book. The stories of historic forts that exist to this day--along with those forts now living only in history--include Indians, mountain men,the Pony Express, stagecoaches, wagon trains, the frontier army, railroads, and early "autoists." Coverage reachers from the 19th century to the 21st.

This book puts you right with the Corps of Discovery, and helps show what the trip was like for the men, one woman, and the baby who made up the Lewis and Clark Expeditoin of 1803-1806.
