Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings to light the wild adventures of the pioneers of this continent, in the solitudes of the mountains, the prairies and the forests; often amidst hostile Indians, and far away from the restraints and protection of civilization. This strange, weird-like life is rapidly passing away, before the progress of population, railroads and steamboats. But it is desirable that the memory of it should not drift into oblivion. I think that almost every reader of this narrative will be somewhat surprised, in its development of the character of Christopher Carson. With energy and fearlessness never surpassed, he was certainly one of the most gentle, upright, and lovable of men. It is strange that the wilderness could have formed so estimable a character. America will not permit the virtues of so illustrious a son to be forgotten.It is the mission of Forgotten Phoenix Press to revive our history and re-educate our people, all people. We do not hide from the past, good or bad. We will not distort the events that occurred. We seek to revive the realities of the past in the context in which they occurred. The best recorders of history are those who were there, back when it was not yet history, but the current events of the day. Only in that correct context can it be correctly judged. Technology may change, but human nature forever remains the same. Most of which is occurring in the world today is not novel and new, but a repitition of history. We are reliving the mistakes our ancestors have already lived through. Now is the time to learn the truth, to learn from them what steps we need to take now, so that we may move forward and create a grand new future for the next generation to learn from.
