About the Author
Jim Crownover has been a student of the American westward migration for many years. Upon retirement from an Engineering career, he has found time to write about the times. Inside every major event in history are hundreds of smaller events performed by men and women with little notice from the historian. The two time Spur Award winner is convinced that these unnoticed people and the aggregate of their unnoticed labors are the essence of any great event in history. These are the people he wants to recognize and write about.
