Hoig, Stan. THE WESTERN ODYSSEY OF JOHN SIMPSON SMITH. 1974 1st 12 pp. photos and illustrations. Glendale, CA: Arthur H. Clark Co., 1974. First edition, one of only 1,613 copies printed. A rather enigmatic figure who spent his entire life on the frontier, Smith was a trapper, trader, and interpreter who became well known nationally as a result of his profile by Louis Garrard in Wah-To-Yah and Taos Trail, and for his congressional testimony concerning the Sand Creek Massacre. He probably would occupy a larger place in the western pantheon had he left a personal account of what was no doubt a very interesting life. A bit of very light wear to the spine ends and corners; otherwise a fine copy. Clark, R. & P. Brunet: The Arthur H. Clark Company: A Bibliography and History 1902-1992, #122.
