Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pen Pictures of Early Western Days So much has been said and written in regard to the early settlement of Keokuk that is merely traditional and often with small foundation, therefore it might not be amiss for one who was among the pioneers of the place to jot down a few events, and describe a number of interesting localities. Prior to the year 1827, the little village at the foot of the Des Moines rapids was only known as the Point, by the people living near; it was in fact merely a station of the American Fur Company, and as such a large trade was carried on with the Indian half breeds and French, also with the white people living in the vicinity, most of whom were residents of Illinois. The nearest settlement was at Warsaw, then known as Fort Edwards, being one of a chain of forts on the Mississippi river. The others were Fort Snelling on the north; Fort Armstrong, now the United States Arsenal at Rock Island; Fort Madison, and Fort Des Moines, at the present site of Montrose. My father, Major John R. Wilcox, was in charge of the forts on the east side of the river during the Black Hawk war. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
