商品簡介
Author James Knipmeyer has written books on Western US history and articles on the history of southern Utah and northern Arizona. Here, he offers a biography of Cass Hite, a reclusive prospector and rugged mountain man who lived in southern Utah in the 19th century and into the early 20th century. Hite's story continues to interest local and Western historians because his reports of life in the region were published in newspapers, revealing intimate details on cowboys, Native Americans, and prospecting for gold and silver along the Glen Canyon, Colorado, and Green Rivers. The book includes many b&w historical photos and excerpts from Hite's writing. Annotation c2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
