Chief of Scouts-as Pilot to Emigrant and Government Trains, Across the Plains of the Western Frontier (Paperback)


The continuing story of a great Westerner
This is the second volume of William Drannan's substantial memoirs. The thread of his life has now made him an experienced guide, Indian fighter and scout. This was the time of the pioneer trains bound for California and Drannan was constantly occupied as their pilot across the oceans of grass. He was also employed by the US government on many similar missions. This volume is equally full of action as was his first offering. It too is liberally enhanced with illustrations depicting the principal incidents and personalities of his life. The first volume of Drannan's story, 'Thirty-one Years on the Plains and Mountains' is also published by Leonaur.
