The book tells the story of Father Pierre-Jean De Smet, a Catholic missionary who dedicated his life to serving the Native American tribes in the Rocky Mountains during the 19th century. The authors provide a detailed account of Father De Smet's life, from his early years in Belgium to his arrival in America and his travels through the wilderness of the Rockies. The book describes the challenges that Father De Smet faced as he sought to establish relationships with the Native American tribes and share his faith with them. The authors also explore the political and social context of the time, including the conflicts between the United States government and the Native American tribes.
