Summary: A well deserved biography
Comment: After reading numerous books and articles on the fur trade era, it was a pleasure to come across this biography of Etienne Provost by Jack Tykal. Although known by many during his time and mentioned in scholarly works of western history, Provost still remained obscure and almost forgotten as time passed by. This is a well done report on his life and the influence he had on others in his day. Starting out in the fur trade circa 1815, he then endeavored in the Sante Fe trade in the early 1820's. From there he trapped in the Salt Lake area, attended the first mountain rendezvous of 1825, acted as guide to numerous governmental and private expeditions, etc. The man was just about everywhere and did what most men only dream of. A well researched book and a great bibliography.
