A sailor, miller, real estate man, and Iowa pioneer, it seems the role he enjoyed the most was social commentator and historian. In that role he provides us with not only a look at pioneer Iowa but at the tumultuous years through which he lived, including the Civil War and the Industrial Revolution. He was well-read and well-traveled and he entertains as he takes you on his life's voyage. Every memoir of the American West provides us with another view of the movement that changed the country forever. For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
