Anotácia knihy

"The three volumes of this work comprise a wealth of information about persons who lived on the frontier, whether that was the trans-Appalachian frontier, the 'wide Missouri' frontier, the mining regions of the Rockies, or the gold-mining/ranching frontiers of California, Oregon, or Arizona." - "Booklist". "The index ...adds to the reference value of the book...Highly recommended." - "American Reference Books Annual". Stretching from "Aaron, Sam, Arizona pioneer" to "Zutacapan, Acomo pueblo chief," the three-volume "Encyclopedia of Frontier Biography" profiles approximately 4,500 frontier figures. Hiawatha, Wild Bill Hickok, Sam Houston, Keokuk, Bat Masterson, Lola Montez, Annie Oakley, and others appear in volume II (G-O). Among the less famous worthies represented are Elbridge Gerry, Howling Wolf, Indian Annie, Mouse's Road, and Print Olive. Even Hoot Gibson, William S. Hart, and other actors who portrayed westerners are sketched in. "The Encyclopedia of Frontier Biography" is the product of a lifetime of study by Dan L. Thrapp, whose previous books include "The Conquest of Apacheria" (1967) and "Victorio and the Mimbres Apaches" (1980).
