Book Description
Letters from 1836... These first-person accounts of a trapper's life in the Rockies were letters written by Robert Campbell to his brother. They were first published as a serial in the National Atlas and Tuesday Morning Mail (Philadelphia), Nov 1 - Dec 6, 1836 giving eastern Americans a view onto the wild mountains of the West.. The five letters present an authentic look at the wild frontier of that time period of the early 1800's, and tell much of the bloody encounters with the various tribes of the area, both friendly and not. A quick, but fascinating read.

Letters from the Rocky Mountain Indian Missions
Author: Philip Rappagliosi
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 1496208544
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Letters from the Rocky Mountain Indian Missions reveals the life of an Italian Jesuit as he worked at three missions in the northern Rocky Mountains from 1874 to 1878. Meticulously translated and carefully annotated, the letters of Father Philip Rappagliosi (1841–78) are a rare and rich source of information about the daily lives, customs, and beliefs of the many Native peoples that he came into contact with: Nez Perces, Kootenais, Salish Flatheads, Coeur d’Alenes, Pend d’Oreilles, Blackfeet, and Canadian Métis. These never-before-translated letters reveal the shifting, sometimes volatile relationship between the missionaries and the Native Americans and also provide a window into the complex lives of the Jesuits. After requesting to work among the Native peoples of the American West, Rappagliosi arrived at Saint Mary’s Mission in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana in 1874, where he spent much time among already converted members of the Salish Flathead Nation. The energetic Rappagliosi journeyed next to Canada to visit some Kootenai Indian bands and then was reassigned to Saint Ignatius Mission, where he interacted with the Upper Pend d’Oreilles Indians. Rappagliosi’s final and most difficult assignment was at Saint Peter’s Mission among the Blackfeet in Montana, who were not converts. There he became embroiled in disputes with a controversial former Oblate priest, and foul play was suspected in his death at the age of thirty-seven.
