About this ebook
"The Minute Man on the Frontier" by William George Puddefoot
Written by a missionary and frontiersman, this book talks about the wonders, fears, and adventures that came with living in America's wilder regions during the country's infancy. From Minnesota's vast spaces to Chicago which, at the time, was just a glimmer of the metropolitan city it would later become. This book shows how different the US was from Europe and how those differences created a wonderful journey for men and women on the frontier.
