Product Description
Fortune opened the way for him to go all the way to Santa Fe, where he traded with the local Mexicans and made a good profit. He was determined to make the trip again, this time with wagons. The journey almost cost him his life, but he had established the Santa Fe Trail, a pathway that became instrumental in the effort to settle the West.
