Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the publication of The Splendid Wayfaring in 1920, John G. Neihardt sought to restore the reputation of a mountain man who went far in opening up the American West. The exciting narrative begins in 1822, when Smith ascended the Missouri River in the first fur-trading expedition of William H. Ashley and Andrew Henry, and ends in 1831, when he was killed by Comanche Indians on the Cimarron River. In the intervening years Smith became the first explorer to recognize South Pass as the gateway to the Far West, the first overlander to reach California and travel up the coast to the Columbia River, and the first white man to cross the Sierra Nevada and the Great Basin from west to east. The Splendid Wayfaring follows in novelistic detail the history-making adventures of Smith and his companions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Splendid Wayfaring: The Story of the Exploits and Adventures of Jedediah Smith and His Comrades, the Ashley-Henry Men, Discoverers and Explorers of the Great Central Route From the Missouri River to the Pacific Ocean, 1822-1831 The student of American History in our schools is given an opportunity to become well acquainted with the early explorations of the Great North west and the Great Southwest; he is taught little or nothing of the real discoverers of the central route from the Missouri River tojhe 'pa?iifc Ocean. This is due to the fact that, until very recently, our historians have been concerned too much with governmental acts, too little with the activities of the people themselves. The official explorers of the Northwest and the Southwest were actually pioneers; but the oflicial exploration of the great central region beyond the Rockies was undertaken twenty years after the actual dis coverers and explorers had set out from St. Louis. Considering the fact that it was by way of the central route that the tide of migration flowed across the Rockies and possessed the Far West, it would seem that the discovery and exploration of that route might now, at last, be given some attention in our schools.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1912 edition. Excerpt: ... TO THE STUDENT, THE PROFESSOR, THE CRITIC, AND THE MAN IN THE STREET OW, your ordinary man, what time he can spare from the fantastic business that he has set up as his "calling" or "object in life," gives a certain serious consideration in his day to phases of his mind which he calls "religion" or "recreation" or "culture" or "sport" or "getting on," or the like. His "religion," 'tis true, he keeps at solemn arm's length, shrinks from being on too familiar a footing with it, treats with aloof and reverential respect lest it overstep decorum, be guilty of familiarity, and enter too intimately into his conduct--though he compel it upon his neighbour with dogged resolution. His "recreation" he takes more whole-heartedly--or as wholeheartedly sees to it that his neighbours shall not take it, which is only another, if greyer, form of recreation. But the most vital faculty that is granted to him, whereby he alone may increase the splendour of life, he thrusts aside among the lesser things, accounting it of less significance in his day than his sport--to say nothing of food and drink and money. Nay, the very word Art, which is the next most important in his short wayfaring to Life itself, he associates with a painting in a gilt frame by some long-dead artist, which he does not understand, but respects as a fetish because in some vague way he realises that large sums of money are needed to purchase it-- by people who understand the art of it perhaps as little as he. The Great, and the heirs to the once Great, living in a palatial atmosphere, are surrounded by masterpieces of painting of antique days--for which they care or do not care--and they that are new come to wealth, being at their wits' end, often as not, to know what to do with
