DOWNLOAD EBOOK →"Journal of a Trapper" contains notes and extracts taken from Osborne Russell's journal during his time as a trapper in the Rocky Mountains between 1834 and 1843. Osborne Russell (1814 - 1892) was a politician and mountain man who notably helped form the government of the U.S. state of Oregon. Contents include: "Expedition Left Independence, Mo., April 28, 1834, Headed by Nathaniel J. Wyeth", "Meeting with Captain B. S. Bonneville and Party-Establishment of the Trading Post at Fort Hall", "Snake Valley, a Winter Resort for Trappers", "Hunting Party Suffers from Hunger", "One Member Lost", "Description of a Fall Hunt", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of dog breeding.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In 1834, Osborne Russell joined an expedition from Boston, under the direction of Nathaniel J. Wyeth, which proceeded to the Rocky Mountains to capitalize on the salmon and fur trade. He would remain there, hunting, trapping, and living off the land, for the next nine years. Journal of a Trapper is his remarkable account of that time as he developed into a seasoned veteran of the mountains and experienced trapper. "Perhaps the best account of the fur trapper in the Rocky Mountains when the trade there was at its peak." - Aubrey L. Haines.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Reader, if you are in search of the travels of a classical and scientific tourist, please to lay this volume down, and pass on, for this simply informs you what a trapper has seen and experienced. But if you wish to peruse a hunter’s rambles among the wild regions of the Rocky Mountains, please to read this, and forgive the author’s foibles and imperfections, considering as you pass along that he has been chiefly educated in Nature’s school under that rigid tutor, Experience, and you will also bear in mind the author does not hold himself responsible for the correctness of statements made otherwise than from observation. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
