Straight up to See the Sky: An Illustrated Guide to the Great Trans-Allegheny Adventurers — Timothy Truman

Straight Up To See the Sky tells the story of America when "the frontier" was the area just beyond the Ohio River. Covering the period from the 1740s through the 1790s, these concise yet detailed biographies - each illustrated with a full-page portrait by the author - provide a fresh, updated look at the woodsmen, warriors, captives, settlers, and explorers of the eastern American frontier.
