In 1861, the guns that thundered round Fort Sumter began the third and greatest modern civil war fought by English-speaking people. This war was quite as full of politics as were the other two - the War of the American Revolution and that of Puritan and Cavalier.

A thriving fur trade post between 1830 and 1860, Fort Clark, in what is today western North Dakota, also served as a way station for artists, scientists, missionaries, soldiers, and other western chroniclers traveling along the Upper Missouri River.

This book is the first account of the fur trade at Fort Clark to integrate new archaeological evidence into the history.
