In the compilation of the narrative contained in this work, the author has told in graphic language the history of his early youth and subsequent incidents that partake of more than ordinary interest. Colonel George Hunter, one of the band of pioneers Whose advance to the slopes of the Pacific paved the way for the tide of emigration, has passed through a series of those hair-breadth escapes and adventures so incidental to Western life. At the solicitation of numerous friends the task of collating his reminiscences have been undertaken, and, although the present work does not pretend to any high literary efi'ort, its contents can scarcely fail to be interesting, especially to those Who have become identified with the events described.
