| Summary | "With Carson and Frémont" by Edwin L. Sabin is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The narrative focuses on the adventures of famed scout Kit Carson and Lieutenant John Charles Frémont during their expeditions in the 1840s, exploring the American West and navigating treacherous environments with a group of men, including a young boy named Oliver Wiggins. The book likely aims to capture the spirit of exploration and the challenges faced by pioneers in a time of significant expansion in American history. The opening of the book sets the scene with a caravan journeying from Missouri to Santa Fé in November 1840. It introduces young Oliver Wiggins, tasked with herding the loose animals at the back of the caravan, which is soon alerted to potential danger from the Kiowa Indians. The tension escalates when they encounter the renowned Kit Carson and his fellow trappers, who join the caravan amid concerns over Indian attacks. As the caravan prepares for a potential confrontation, the narrative hints at the camaraderie and spirit of adventure that characterized the era, with Oliver aspiring to prove himself amidst the looming dangers of the Western frontier.
