Wah-to-yah, and the Taos Trailor Prairie travel and scalp dances, with a look at Los Rancheros from Muleback and the Rocky Mountain Campfire【電子書籍】[ Lewis Hector Garrard ]
＜p＞Wah-to-Yah is the only well-known book written by Garrard. It has won a secure place in the literature of the American＜br /＞ West.＜br /＞ On 1 Sept 1846, Garrard, 17 years old, joined a caravan in Westport Landing, Missouri to travel along the Santa Fe Trail to＜br /＞ New Mexico. He stopped off at Bent's Fort for two months and continued on to Taos with a company of Mountain Men to avenge＜br /＞ the death of Charles Bent in the Taos Revolt. While in Taos, Garrard attended the trial of some of the Mexicans and Pueblos＜br /＞ who had revolted against U.S. rule of New Mexico, newly captured in the Mexican?American War. Garrard wrote the only eye＜br /＞ witness account of the trial and hanging of six convicted men.＜br /＞ Garrard returned home after his 10-month trip and apparently never visited the West again.＜br /＞ The book is "fresh and vigorous" and contains in its pages authentic descriptions of "the Indian, the trader, the mountain＜br /＞ man, their dress, and behavior and speech and the country and climate they lived in." The pages of the book contain a＜br /＞ wealth of characters, including Kit Carson, Jim Beckwourth, Ceran St. Vrain, George F. Ruxton, William Bent, and others and＜br /＞ an "anthropologically accurate" description of the Cheyenne Indians. ?Garrard condemns the U.S. war against Mexico and＜br /＞ hanging of the rebels in Taos as unjust.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
