Kit Carson Was Surviving in the American Frontier for 60 Years

Описание: Imagine leaving home at 16 to face the wild, lawless frontier of the American West.
For Kit Carson, that decision marked the beginning of a life filled with danger, survival—and legend.
He started as a teenage trapper in the Rockies, learned tribal languages, and guided John C. Frémont through some of the most unforgiving terrain in North America.
Later, he carried vital messages across enemy lines during the Mexican-American War, led troops for the Union, and oversaw brutal campaigns against Native tribes—including the forced relocation of the Navajo.
Carson was fearless, loyal, and modest to a fault. But his legacy is complicated—equal parts heroism and heartbreak.
Based on his real-life adventures, this is the true story of a man who helped shape the West—and paid the price for it.
I hope you enjoy his vivid account.
The campfire is ready and the story is about to start
My name is Sam, and this is Wild America.
