Cool. I go to Fort Bridger every year. My hubby's a full member of the ALRA (American Longrifle Association) which does French and Indian war through war of 1812. I have a particular interest in the early side of the Fur Trade, with Manuel Lisa and the Chouteaus, say up through about the beginning of the Rendezvous period.
I have in hardback a two volume edition of
_A history of the American Fur Trade of the far west_
by Hiram Martin Chittenden
published originally in 1902
an excellent resource for that time period.
