Beskrivelse af Marcus Whitman The Pathfinder Of The Pacific Northwest And Martyred Missionary Of Oregon
""Marcus Whitman: The Pathfinder of the Pacific Northwest and Martyred Missionary of Oregon"" is a biography written by Jonathan Edwards that tells the story of Marcus Whitman, an American physician and missionary who played a key role in the exploration and settlement of the Pacific Northwest in the mid-19th century. The book details Whitman's journey from his childhood in upstate New York to his work as a doctor and missionary in Oregon, where he and his wife, Narcissa, established a mission among the Cayuse Indians. The book explores Whitman's efforts to promote settlement and development in the region, as well as his interactions with Native Americans and his role in the tragic events that led to his own death and the deaths of many others at the hands of the Cayuse. Through the lens of Whitman's life and work, the book offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the American West and the complex relationships between settlers and Native Americans during a time of rapid change and conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
