The lives of Ellis P. Bean

American history has produced few such personal sagas of high adventure as that of a lad from Tennessee named Ellis Peter Bean, who saddled his horse one autumn day in 1800 and rode out of Natchez with twenty-seven other members of Philip Nolan's last expedition to Texas. Promises of a share in the wild horses to be captured and talk of gold and silver had lured Bean into this venture.
