In the beginning the west was a hard place and required hard men. No one knew it better than Kit. Manifest Destiny. In those days it meant exploration more akin to space travel in our times. Little did we know at time it also meant the displacement of millions of people and the theft of their lands by way of treatys they never intended to honor. Thank you Black Barrel for bringing our history to a new generation. Enjoyed.

Your account of the DeHaro twins and Jose Berryessa is quite incorrect. This incident took place at the Mission at San Rafael and the twins Ramon and Francisco were the sons of Francisco deHaro the alcalde of Yerba Buena (San Francisco) for staters.

Fremont is a hero to radicals He did recognize Grants talent and perseverance but in the end he was always about himself first Odd he was a southerner of I suppose Huguenot ancestry

I'll go rhythm

The city of Stockton is named after US Navy Commodore Robert Stockton.
