The adventures of Captain Bonneville, U.S.A

"A man who has made his home for years in the vast solitudes of the West acquires a kind of instinct for danger, a silent and wary vigilance that never sleeps."

"The life of the hunter and the trapper is a continual series of perils, hardships, and privations, yet it possesses a charm for those who have once indulged in it that drives them back to it again and again."

"There is a magnanimity in the wilderness that subdues all petty passions; a grandeur in its solitudes that inspires a feeling of awe and elevates the mind above the mere trifles of human existence."

"The Indian warrior looks upon his horse not merely as an animal of burden, but as a companion in arms, sharing in his dangers, participating in his glory, and essential to his very existence."

"In these wild regions, where laws are unknown and every man carries his own defense upon his shoulder, a strict code of honor and hospitality becomes the universal religion of the camp."

"To brave the elements, to outwit the savage, and to wrest a subsistence from the barren crags of the mountains—such is the daily routine of the American pioneer."
