Excerpt from Across the Plains in '64: Incidents of Early Days West of the Missouri River, Two Thousand Miles in an Open Boat From Fort Benton to Omaha, Reminiscences of the Pioneer Period of Galena, General Grant's Old HomeAt the request of members of my family and inti mate friends, I have brie¿y sketched some of my experiences in the West, before the days of the railroad. This little book is intended for private circulation. I have made no effort to give the sketches a literary dress. I have only attempted to relate from diary and memory, in a matter of fact way, a number of inter esting incidents, which, in the hands of an experi enced writer would, in my opinion, furnish material for an interesting volume.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
