Broken-hand Fitzpatrick - Greatest of Mountain Men

Shannon Garst

Skilled as a hunter, trapper, Army guide and Indian agent, Tom Fitzpatrick blazed much of the Oregon Trail, and his discovery of South Pass in the Rockies privided a gateway to western expansion. His exploits earned him the reputation as the greatest of mountain men. His friends were the giants of the West who, like himself, helped make history -- Kit Carson, Jim Bridger, Jedediah Smith, John Fremont, Stephen Kearny. But it is Tom Fitzpatrick who captures the imagination by his resourcefulness, fearlessness and extreme courage.
