Old Forts Never Die – The Middle Missouri Fur Trade, 1738 – 1850
The Proceedings of the 2018 National Fur Trade Symposium
The papers that are presented in the Proceedings ranged widely, providing varying perspectives into the fascinating era of more-or-less peaceful commerce between people of many nations on the banks of the Missouri River. We see the region from 1738-1850 through lenses of gender roles, borderlands, connections to global commerce, archaeology, science and biography.
