Trade Paperback. Condición: Fine. Eighth Printing. 253 Pages Indexed. Britton Davis's account of the controversial "Geronimo Campaign" of 1885-86 offers an important firsthand picture of the famous Chiricahua warrior and the men who finally forced his surrender.

Hard Cover. Condición: Fine. No Jacket. First Thus. A Lakeside Classic. Blue cloth binding. "General Thomas James. . . pioneered on two widely separated frontiers. As a member of the St. Louis Missouri Fur Company's expedition of 1809-10 to the headwaters of the Missouri he was one of the first Americans to traverse this then remote area; and as a trader to Santa Fe and to the Comanche Indians in the years 1821-23 he was again one of the first Americans to traverse and describe the southwestern area extending from St. Louis to Santa Fe." - Historical Introduction.

Soft cover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: None as Issued. First Edition, 3rd Printing. Text/BRAND NEW & Bright. Illustrated soft cover/NF showing light edge rubs. Fold-out map (also BRAND NEW). First published 1926, Yale Univ. Autobiography/memoir of pioneer, hunter and trapper Luther S. "Yellowstone" Kelly (1849 - 1928). "Yellowstone" earned his nickname while scouting for the Army on the Yellowstone River; from 1876 to 1878 he was Chief of Scouts for Lieutenant-General Nelson Miles who penned the Foreword. Kelly later guided two expeditions into Alaska, served as the Captain of Volunteers in the Philippines and then took on a post as agent of the San Carlos Indian Reservation. It is said he was as as likely to quote Shakespeare as skin a beaver. His stoies of hunting, scouting and frontier warefare are certainly well narrated. Yellowstone Kelly finally retired in California where he died on Dec. 17, 1928. At his request he was buried at the summit of Kelly Mountain in Billings Montana overlooking the land he scouted and loved.…
