Idaho did not arrive quietly. It was surveyed, claimed, farmed, defended. Facts. Names. Dates. Hard choices. Idaho Facts and Statistics gathers the raw materials of settlement into a vivid record of the Oregon Trail era West, tracing Idaho early settlement history through the growth of towns, routes, and communities in 19th century Idaho. With special attention to the Franklin Colony Idaho and the wider pattern of Mormon pioneer settlements, it blends factual notes with narrative episodes of frontier strain, including accounts of Native American conflicts Idaho that shaped southeastern Idaho history. The result is American frontier nonfiction with the grounded feel of pioneer chronicles and memoirs, attentive to what was built, what was contested, and what endured. Valuable as a western history reference guide and as an Idaho genealogy resource, this Idaho local history book keeps local detail at the centre: places, families, and the practical realities of colonisation on the edge of the American West. Its plain organisation reflects an era determined to measure land, labour, and loss, leaving a regional record that complicates the story of expansion in the West, at close range. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. For casual history readers it offers a direct window into how communities formed; for classic-history collectors it stands as a compact documentary artefact of a region too often reduced to legend.
