SUMMARY

When Lewis and Clark struggled across the high Rockies in Montana and Idaho, their route was too perilous for wagon trains to follow. Six years later, on the return trip from establishing John Jacob Astor's fur trading post at Astoria, Robert Stuart and six companions traveled from west to east for more than 3,000 grueling miles by canoe, horseback, and foot, following the mountains south until they came upon the one gap in the Rocky Mountain chain that was passable by wagon. Resurrecting a pivotal moment in American history, this is the never-before-told story of the young Scottish fur trader who made the trailblazing discovery of the Oregon Trail and changed the face of the country forever. Book jacket.McCartney, Laton is the author of 'Across the Great Divide Robert Stuart and the Discovery of the Oregon Trail', published 0000 under ISBN 9780786270804 and ISBN 0786270802.
