Description: Jacob Hamblin was one of the most colorful and respected figures in the American West; colonizer, conqueror of deserts, and trusted friend of the Native Americans. A devoted LDS Church leader and family, he was Brigham Young's agent in exploring the Intermountain West, seeking suitable places for Mormon expansion, and helping to build outposts there. Hamblin's respect for the Natives and their beliefs and rights was unmatched among his peers. He never betrayed the trust reposed in him; as a result, Mormon pioneers often came unmolested into the most rugged and intimidating parts of the Old West when others likely would have met with hostility. This book not only describes his exploits and adventures, but also gives fascinating insights into the world in which Hamblin lived and worked. Long out of print.
