Frontier Living di Edwin Tunis

This provided a lot of good information for helping me understand my fourth great grandfather's journal about his life in the 1800's.

FRONTIER LIVING di Tunis

An excellent oversized non-fiction book with words and drawings illustrating each aspect of frontier life. Tunis describes customs, tools, architecture, and all manner of life, beautifully illustrated with pen and ink drawings and maps.

Shaw's Fortune: The Picture Story of a… di Edwin Tunis

Outstanding book. Was very influential in my personal development. I especially liked the part where he blamed his brother for shooting the window out with the BB gun.
