Conquest of the Missouri (Frontier Classics) Review
Source: Product DescriptionFrontier Classics resurrect long out-of-print gems of frontier history.

After beginning his career as a 12-year-old riverboat deckhand, Grant Marsh went on to serve with the Federal Mississippi River flotilla during the Civil War. He began piloting the Missouri River in 1873, and was the most popular steamboat captain when the army hired his "Far West" riverboat for the duration of the Great Sioux War.
