Description

The story of the mixing of numerous cultures in a land wealthy in resources and beauty is an strange one. On this account, the pioneer hunters, trappers, and traders who roamed the Ozark hills and the boatmen who traded at the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers take their place beside the small coterie of St. Louisans whose wealth and influence enabled them to dominate the region politically and economically. Especially appealing for lots of readers would be the attention Foley gives to commonplace Missourians, to the status of ladies and blacks, and to Indian-white relations.
