Pioneers Of The Pacific Coast: A Chronicle Of Sea Rovers And Fur Hunters is a historical book written by Agnes Christina Laut and published in 1915. The book chronicles the early exploration and settlement of the Pacific Coast of North America by sea rovers and fur hunters. Laut takes the reader on a journey through the lives of famous explorers such as Sir Francis Drake, Captain Cook, and Alexander Mackenzie, as well as the lesser-known fur traders and adventurers who played a significant role in the development of the region. The book provides a detailed account of the struggles and triumphs of these pioneers as they navigated the treacherous waters of the Pacific, battled with indigenous tribes, and established trading posts and settlements along the coast. It also explores the impact of the fur trade on the native peoples and the environment, as well as the political and economic factors that shaped the history of the region. Overall, Pioneers Of The Pacific Coast is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of North America and the early exploration of the Pacific Coast.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
