Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summer Scamper: Along the Old Santa Fe Trail and Through the Gorges of Colorado to Zion We are in the habit of thinking and speaking of the section west of the Missouri River as a new country, yet it was explored before New England, and is as rich in legendry and romance as the castle-crowned banks of the Rhine. From the mouth of the Kaw River, along "The Old Santa Fe Trail," every mile has its history of peaceful commerce and bloody warfare; and when the land of the Pueblos is reached, the antiquarian will find ruins as venerable as England's most ancient abbey, and customs that are as old as Egypt. It was only thirty years after the discovery of this continent by Columbus, and nearly a century before the pious Pilgrims bowed their grateful knees upon "that stern and rock-bound coast," that an old buccaneer from Spain was rambling over the plains of Kansas, searching for Florida.

Book The Old Santa Fe Trail

    Book Details:
  • Author : Stanley Vestal
  • Publisher : U of Nebraska Press
  • Release : 1996-05-01
  • ISBN : 9780803296152
  • Pages : 332 pages

Download or read book The Old Santa Fe Trail written by Stanley Vestal and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1996-05-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Santa Fe Trail was one of the two great overland highways originating in Missouri in the nineteenth century. Several decades before settlers streamed over the Oregon Trail, traders were heading southwest. The caravans carried the wares of Yankee commerce; they returned loaded with buffalo robes and beaver pelts and the rich metals of Mexican mines. The thousand-mile journey “was a perilous cruise across a boundless sea of grass, over forbidding mountains, among wild beasts and wilder men, ending in an exotic city offering quick riches, friendly foreign women, and a moral holiday,” writes Stanley Vestal. Vestal begins where the trail does. He describes outfitting for the trip, the society formed for survival, the hunt for meat, landmarks, and the dangers. He evokes the history and legends surrounding the trail at every point, including figures like Kit Carson, Jedediah Smith, the Bent brothers, and Uncle Dick Wooton.

Download or read book What I Saw on the Old Santa Fe Trail written by James A. Little and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What I Saw on the Old Santa Fe Trail: A Condensed Story of Frontier Life Half a Century Ago What I have written in this series of articles is the plain truth. I doubt if a man could be found living today who crossed the plains on the old Santa Fe road in as early day as I. Some of the facts recorded here have never been recorded in any history of Kansas or any account of the old road. There can never again be a repetition of the scenes. There will never again be great caravans of prairie schooners slowly wending their way across the great American desert. The old Santa Fe road is almost obliterated. Cities and towns have sprung up. Dwellings, school houses and churches decorate the prairie. Horace Greely crossed the plains six years later than I. In his comments he said: There were more buffalo in sight than there are cattle in Illinois. So I offer no other reason for this personal history of pioneer days.
