In the early 1800s, river pilots coming downriver discovered that landing a boat on the western bank of the Mississippi River at St. Louis was a dangerous proposition. Stone ledges and a swift current led to the demise of many a boat. River pilots used the Bissell Mansion as a marker to warn them that the city of St. Louis was just around the bend. The Captain's home and the bluff upon which it stood were known as Bissell Point. In this book Captain Lewis Bissell regales us with stories about what life was like for people opening the gateway to the west.
