Wildest Lives of the Frontier by John Stephens
By and about the greatest celebrities of frontier America, these are the stories of their adventures told in their own words through excerpts from autobiographies, articles they wrote, newspaper interviews, private journals, intimate letters, and court testimony. Read these personal accounts as told by Daniel Boone, Lewis and Clark, Sacagawea, Davy Crockett, Black Hawk, John C. Frémont, Kit Carson, John Sutter, Buffalo Bill, Mark Twain, Jesse James, Cole Younger, Frank James, George Armstrong Custer, Crazy Horse, and Sitting Bull. This book offers a rare glimpse into the world of these legendary figures as they describe their own heroic exploits, dangerous rescues, fierce battles, deadly gunfights, horrible crimes, thrilling discoveries, and harsh dangers of life on the frontier of the American West, while revealing the roles they played in the notable events that made them famous.
