MY SIXTY YEARS ON THE PLAINS 
Sixty-three years ago “Bill’ Hamilton, then 
twenty years of age, set out from St. Louis, Mo., 
with seven other free trappers under the leader- 
ship of old “Bill” Williams. Seven of these 
eight men are dead, but Hamilton still lives in

the trapper’s life. It is full of adventure and ex-

The book has all the charm of the old volumes 
telling of early travel in the West; books which 
were simple and direct, and in which there was 
no striving for effect. 
It is illustrated by a portrait of the author 
and one of the celebrated Chief Washaki, and 
by six drawings of old-time trapper and Indian 
life, by Mr. Charles M. Russell, the celebrated 
cowboy artist of Great Falls, Mont.
