Download or read book Frontier Community Kansas City to 1870 written by Andrew Theodore Brown and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of Kansas City is interwoven with the history of the trans-Missouri West. This book pictures the city's beginnings as a fur-trading post at the northward turning point of the Missouri River and describes the community as is it became successively a post for trade with the Indians, a trading and outfitting post for emigrants to California, Oregon, and the Southwest, and as its immediate hinterland began to be settled, an agricultural center. The concluding chapters tell of the coming of the railroads and the building of the first railroad bridge across the Missouri, creating from the little town of Kansas a city to serve a West that was merging with the mainstream of American history. Professor Brown contends that the reshapings of the community as an instrument to serve the changing needs of the West were due in large measure to the foresight and efforts of a small cohesive group of business leaders. He tells the story of their collective struggle against obstacles - the rivalry of several nearby communities for trade, railroads, and bridges and the destructive political strife during the Civil War, when the city was constantly harassed and threatened by guerrillas.

Download or read book Early Kansas City Missouri written by Leigh Ann Little and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1821, François Chouteau set up a fur-trading outpost along the Missouri River, bringing the first settlement of Europeans to what would become Kansas City, named after the Kansa tribe of Native Americans who inhabited the area. At the center of a growing nation, the "City on the Bluff" would build and thrive as a river town, a gateway to the West, and a railroad hub, absorbing the influences of pioneers and immigrants traveling through or making it their home. Striving to become "A City Beautiful," its parks and boulevards drew attention from around the world. These are the beginnings of a town carved out of a hillside in the wilderness, transformed into an exciting metropolis that would eventually be called home by Walt Disney, Ernest Hemingway, Jesse James, and many others who left a lasting mark on history.
