I have tried, rather, to review that period from a President's personal and political philosophy, a President's experience and knowledge, a President's aspirations, and a President's response to the demands that were made on him." I have not written these chapters to say' This is how it was," but to say, "This is how I saw it from my vantage point."

Burdett portrays Carson as a classic American folk hero, describing his expeditions westward, his trade ventures, learning to fight from Native American Indians, and his settling in Indian cultures. Other notable topics include Carson's buffalo and bear hunting excursions, as well as accounts of his involvement in John C. Fremont's expeditions.
