The Fur Trade of America by Agnes C. Laut is a comprehensive account of the fur trade industry in North America. The book covers the period from the arrival of the first European explorers to the decline of the fur trade in the early 20th century. The author provides a detailed history of the trade, including its economic, social, and cultural impact on both Native American and European communities. She explores the role of the fur trade in the expansion of the American West and the formation of the United States. The book also delves into the environmental impact of the fur trade on the animal populations of the region. The Fur Trade of America is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of North America, the fur trade, or the impact of European colonization on Native American communities.1921.
