Fascinating description of life on the frontier of Dakota,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dakota: An Autobiography of a Cowman (Paperback)
Hamilton was one of the small ranchers who traveled to Dakota after the Civil War to find his fortune. Written years after the events described, the clarity with which he recalls the events and the details of daily life are amazing. The good-humored style and the simple stories have the power to make you wish you could have gone along with those hardy pioneers.
