Download or read book The Santa Fe Trail written by David Dary and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2001 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1610, when the Spanish founded the city of Santa Fe, to the 1860s, when the railroad brought unprecedented changes: here is the full, fascinating story of the great Santa Fe Trail which ran between Missouri and Kansas and New Mexico--a lifeline to and from the Southwest for more than two centuries. Drawing from letters, journals, expedition reports, business records, and newspaper stories, David Dary--one of our foremost historians of the Old West--brings to life the people who laid down the trail and opened commerce with Spanish America: Native Americans and mountain men, traders, trappers, and freighters, surveyors and soldiers, men and women of many different nationalities. Their firsthand accounts let us experience up close the spectacular scenery; the details of camping out in both friendly and hostile Indian territory; the constant danger from natural disasters or sudden attack; the hardworking, often maverick men who were employed on the wagon trains; the pleasures and entertainments at the southern end of the journey. The book makes clear how in the early years trade started and stopped at the whim of the Spanish, and how the trail finally grew and prospered, bringing the settlement of new towns and the creation of new wealth along the route. We also learn how the rapid spread of the railroads across the country inexorably replaced the long caravans of mule- and ox-drawn wagons, and the way of life they represented. With his comprehensive knowledge and his exceptional storytelling skills, David Dary has given us a vivid re-creation of an important time and place in American history.

Book excerpt: Ah - The West! The unknown land beyond the wide Missouri River! Booming trade between young America and Mexico exploded after the yoke of Spanish rule was lifted from Santa Fe in 1821. First with pack mules heading out across the unexplored prairie through dangerous Indian country, then thousands of lumbering covered wagons on The Trail carried guns, iron, whiskey, cotton, coffee, for the southwest trade; the story of The Santa Fe Trail embodies the unique early-day West America loves. And, too, rich Mexican land-owners in the far west soon joined in, bringing mules, silver, pelts, and gold up The Trail to bustling St. Louis markets. It was the talk of the nation.

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.
