Abner Sprague's first home in the wilderness that would become Rocky Mountain National Park was a simple log cabin, its roof covered with peat. From these humble beginnings, the nenowned Colorado pioneer would build a successful guest ranch and a lasting legacy. This collection of Sprague's own writings and photographs tells of his extraordinary life, from his family and upbringing in the frontier Midwest to the Spragues' journey across the plains in a covered wagon and eventual settlement on homesteads in Estes Park. In the almost seven decades that followed, Abner Sprague played a role in America's railway expansion, married, explored the region's untamed backcountry, met many of its unique characters and operated two successful ranch resorts amid spectacular surroundings. My Pioneer Life is a unique account of the American frontier experience, told by a man who lived it to the fullest.--Back cover.

Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for History for 1993 In the first and most reliable biography of Daniel Boone in more than fifty years, award-winning historian Faragher brilliantly portrays America's famous frontier hero. Drawing from popular narrative, the public record, scraps of documentation from Boone's own hand, and a treasure of reminiscence gathered by nineteenth-century antiquarians, Faragher uses the methods of new social history to create a portrait of the man and the times he helped shape. Blending themes from a much vitalized Western and frontier history with the words and ideas of ordinary people, Faragher has produced a book that will stand as the definitive life of Daniel Boone for decades to come, and one that illuminates the frontier world of Boone like no other.

Best known for catching wolves alive with his bare hands, John R. Abernathy (1876?1941) was born to Scottish ancestors in Texas. Raised in the burgeoning railroad town of Sweetwater, Abernathy considered himself a true son of the Wild West. In his amazing life he worked as a U.S. marshal, sheriff, Secret Service agent, and wildcat oil driller. But it was the accidental discovery of a bold means of catching wolves alive that made Abernathy famous and drew the attention of President Theodore Roosevelt. By forcing his hand deep enough into a wolf's mouth, he could stun the creature long enough to capture it, a service for which he was paid fifty dollars by eager ranchers. ø This Bison Books edition brings Abernathy's vivid account of his life into print for the first time since its original publication in 1936.
