Voyages of the Steamboat Yellow Stone
By Donald Jackson"Drawing on original correspondence shipping orders, passenger lists, and newspaper reports, Donald Jackson has written a lively, detailed account of the life and times of one early American steamboat. In the process, he gives us a vivid picture of steamboating as a phenomeon and a profession, and of the impact of a new technology on a westering nation. Long before the golden age of the river steamer, the Yellow Stone was a record-setting pioneer, a powerful engine of Manifest Destiny that seemed always to be on the cutting edge of one frontier or another.
