Title
No Time to Quit: Pioneer America Seen through the Life of Rocky Mountain Man Uncle Dick Wootton - Paperback
by Janelle Wootton McQuitty (Author)
Adventure is often nothing more than the courageous opening of an unknown door, hoping for more than one has and making the best of what one finds. The American frontier was a door of hope for generations of Americans. One hopeful young man--Richens Lacy Wootton, later dubbed "Uncle Dick"--figured if he could work his way West, he'd enjoy adventure and earn enough to return home to a more comfortable life than he could otherwise afford. Many did. Yet, if one door closed for America's pioneers, they looked for another. It was No Time to Quit. Dick and his compadres provide a slice-of-life view of young America during the height of its frontier years, as they trap, trade, mine, freight, and establish paths, road, and towns for a young nation to follow. This history in story form includes four main sections: Uncle Dick's Story, Sketches (mini-encyclopedia of Western topics), Album (photos, maps, illustrations), Timeline (Western, U.S., and some world events). Also included: Table of Contents, Prologue, extensive Bibliography, Index. This non-revisionist history is written from a Southwestern perspective.
