The life and times of Colonel Josiah Snelling and his wife Abigail Hunt Snelling and their involvement in the development of early Minnesota.

Little has been written concerning the military of the United States during the frontier era between the American Revolution and the Civil War. In addition to being the first and only chronicle of the Snelling family, this book is an in-depth look at life at Fort Snelling during its first years in the 1820s.
