Notes on General Ashley: The Overland Trail and South Pass by Donald McKay Frost is a historical account of the life and achievements of William Henry Ashley, a prominent American fur trader and politician who played a significant role in the development of the American West during the early 19th century. The book focuses on Ashley's expeditions along the Overland Trail and his discovery of the South Pass, a crucial route for westward expansion. It provides a detailed analysis of Ashley's leadership style, his relationships with Native American tribes, and his impact on the fur trade industry. The author draws on primary sources such as Ashley's personal journals and letters to provide a comprehensive and engaging account of this important figure in American history. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the American West, the fur trade industry, and the early pioneers who shaped the country's destiny.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
