Praised as a "man of character and ability" by Captains Lewis and Clark of the Voyage of Discovery, Nathaniel Hale Pryor played an important role in exploring and settling the Western Frontier. In addition to the Lewis & Clark Expedition, you'll read about Pryor's troubles with the Indians on the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, how he spied on the camp of Tecumseh, his valiant service under Andrew Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans, and how he assisted early explorers and traders who ventured up the Arkansas River to Santa Fe. As a trader himself, Pryor negotiated with tribes in the Upper Mississippi River area and the Indian Territory to the west of Arkansas. When he intermarried into the Osage Nation, he became their friend, adviser and spokesman. - Back cover.
