About this listen
Was Benjamin L. E. Bonneville, captain of the US Army, granted a two-year leave to try his hand as a fur trader in the Rocky Mountain West? Or did his superiors have ulterior motives, tasking Bonneville to spy on the British in the Pacific Northwest?
The Bonneville expedition began in Missouri and made its way to the Oregon country, territory at the time shared through mutual agreement by the US and Great Britain. Yet, the British presence there caused grave concerns about the geographic boundaries of our nation. This fictional account of the Bonneville expedition brings to life the difficult trek facing Bonneville and his men in their encounters with Native Americans and their struggles against the harsh elements on their westward journey to Oregon.
