The Edge Rover – The Life and Times of Mountain Man Isaac Slover
The Edge Rover is a welcome addition to early American West biographies, showing that boundaries, borders, and identities during the early period could be as fluid and wild as the land itself.
Description
The Edge Rover – The Life and Times of Mountain Man Isaac Slover
The Edge Rover chronicles the expansive life of Isaac Slover, a fur trapper who was born in Pennsylvania during the Revolutionary War and who ranged through the American West. The variety and extensiveness of Slover’s encounters among Indigenous peoples and the Hispanic Southwest distinguish his experience from the other “mountain men” of his time.
Sparse evidence documents Slover’s adventures, but what remains is meticulously compiled within this book.
