Title: Deserving biography
Product review: Kenneth Holmes' "Ewing Young" is a must read for early west enthusiasts. The man did nearly everything and was just about everywhere. Among some of his accomplishments:With the first wagon train to Santa Fe in 1822 whose purpose was trade; sets up shop in Taos for several years in order to send out and participate in several trapping expeditions throughout the southwest; drives innumerable herds of horses and mules from New Mexico to Missouri; later drives mules from California to New Mexico; guides the eccentric Hall Jackson Kelley to Oregon; settles in Oregon and is the first to drive cattle from California to Oregon, thus opening the territory more so for the United States.A well written, researched and enjoyable book.
