- Synopsis
- This book describes life in a frontier fort on the Great Plains in mid-western America in the 19th century. The frontier forts were places of safety in a wild landscape - some were just military camps, but others grew into busy towns, crowded with trading posts and workshops. Indians, fur-trappers, gold miners and farmers brought goods to the fort to sell them. Pioneers, on their way to set up new homes in the west, rested and bought provisions within the shelter of the fort's high wooden walls.
