In historical writing much of the woman's side has been lost or obscured. This excellent book deals with the women, mostly Native Peoples, who were wives and daughters of American fur traders. It was a harsh life but women often played a key role in the success and survival of the mountain men. The fur trader era is one of extremes and filled with colorful characters. The different attitudes of the French and English towards their Native wives shows the early pattern of race relations that was to be played out during later decades. While some traders viewed their liaisons with Native women as seasonal unions, others stayed with their Native wives for life and raised the resulting children as a family. In some cases, the children were sent back to Europe for schooling with marriages arranged for the daughters and the sons following their fathers into the fur trade. This entertaining and informative books provides insights into a period that had an important impact of the history of early America.
