Kit Carson
A Portrait in Courage
by M. Morgan Estergreen
”Doctor! Compadre! Adios!” With these words passed a wiry little man who has
become a legend in the Old West. Much has been written about Kit Carson,
some of it truth, a great deal of it fiction. The two have been mixed all
too often, resulting in an unfaithful and highly distorted picture of the
Great Scout. This book purports to set out Carson’s life as he actually
lived it. Illustrated with B&W photos.
University of Oklahoma Press, Norman OK, 1962, First Edition, Ex-library,
320 pages, 6 ¼” x 9 ¼”, brown cloth with gold lettering on spine, some on
black background, dust jacket, top page ends gray, illustrated.
