Description

In his 1836 account, Washington Irving immortalized Astoria, but it has been a footnote to the history of western expansion - a reminder of John Jacob Astor's failed attempt to establish a fur-trading empire at the mouth of the Columbia from 1810 to 1813. This book tells the importance of the Astoria venture.
