Publication: University of Oklahoma Press, 1968, Norman

First edition. Cloth, 250pp., num. illus. The first significant biography of Kit Carson in several years, many consider this one the best. The author has carefully researched the life and "legend" of Kit Carson and here corrects many errors in earlier works. He also has corrected the chronology of events for 1835 through 1840 in Carson's memoirs. An outstanding work. Fine in price-clipped dust jacket with very slight edgewear.
