Jim Bridger was one of the greatest explorers and pathfinders in American history. At eighteen, he had braved the fury of the Missouri, ascending it in a keelboat flotilla commanded by that stalwart Mike Fink. By 1824, when he was only twenty, he had discovered the Great Salt Lake. This biography provides a portrait of Bridger.
