Synopsis
Pioneer America Seen through the Life of Rocky Mountain Man Uncle Dick Wootton (1816-1893): As Richens L. "Uncle Dick" Wootton traveled the Santa Fe Trail, across the Plains and throughout the West, he trapped, traded, mined, freighted, helped establish towns (first store building in Denver), and built a road over Raton Pass--where he collected tolls until he made way for the railroad. His life has been likened to "an encyclopaedia of life on the Southwestern frontier." Lives of many well-known and unknown frontiersmen and pioneers are woven into the book's four sections: Dick Wootton's Story; Sketches--details about Western topics, including many mini-biographies; Album (110+ photos, maps and illustrations); Timeline. The 546 page book also includes a Prologue, Bibliography and Index. This slice of life is the American Frontier in story form.
