Its publication in 1902 made clear how much the fur trade was \"indissolubly connected to the history of North America.\"Chittenden brought to this enduring work an appreciation of geography and a feeling for the lives and times of colorful trappers and mountain men like Manuel Lisa, William H. Ashley, the Sublette brothers, Jedediah Smith, Jim Bridger, and Kenneth McKenzie. He provided a comprehensive view of the fur trade that still remains sound.Volume 1 of the Bison edition includes the organization and financing of the fur trade and a detailed history of the major American companies operating in the trans-Mississippi West to the year 1843.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51895196090656,"sku":"NEW0803263201","price":25.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71QSITSZfiL.jpg?v=1782032256","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-american-fur-trade-of-the-far-west-volume-1-0803263201","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
