Hear-say was rampant after the United States purchased the Louisiana Territory. Spanish treasures of gold and silver around Santa Fe and the western ocean beyond; drew hordes of treasure seekers. Red River was ready to help explorers conquer the unknown ... or conquer them!
It is astounding that a short two hundred years ago; it was more profitable to lose your identity than to steal the identity of someone else, that the best way to travel from New Orleans to St. Louis was via a steam-driven, wood-eating riverboat and that the number one cash crop of the United States was the skin of a beaver. In all probability the second largest cash crop was whisky!
Listen to TreasureRiver's Stories of the birth of a baby on the wild frontier, without anyone to help; and of death without a funeral or anyone to care; and of the raising of a newborn child without its mother. Treasure River reveals the marriage of a daughter without a preacher or a proper wedding and what commerce was like before checks and debit cards; forgotten is, what it was like to kill your own supper, every day. Listen ... listen as you read TreasureRiver!
