Excerpt from Autobiography and Reminiscences of Philander PrescottWe reached Detroit without any further accident, and I found my brother making preparations to go still farther west. The troops had been ordered to the Mississippi to build forts and occupy that country, and my brother was to go along as clerk for the troops. He told me that I would have to wait until Mr. Devotion, the owner, went to New York and got a supply of goods, and came back, before I could go, and I must try and accompany him through the journey. I passed the sum mer with my books, and kept the store in order, until Mr. Devotion returned, when we started for the Mississippi.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
