Collected here for the first time ever are the surviving eyewitness accounts of the Bozeman's Trail's civilian emigrants: twenty-four diaries written during the journey and nine reminiscences prepared afterward. These accounts describe life on the West's last great emigrant trail; the shortcut from the Platte River Road to the Montana goldfields; from 1863 until 1866; when the route was closed by "Red Cloud's War." Ample introductions; extensive annotation; historical illustrations; and detailed maps enrich this oversized; two-volume compendium.

Since I do not have a lot of information on Australia and New Zealand Uniforms I was delighted to get this. The size is nice and I have a place to put it. Good Job
