This book tells the thrilling tale of how Spanish explorers ventured into the area that would become known as Nebraska in the 16th century, only to find that the land was already home to a large Native American population. The tales of these early explorers, including the story of Francisco Vasquez de Coronado's search for the legendary city of Quivira, provide a glimpse into the history of this region before European settlement and set the stage for the events that were to follow. The author also discusses the arrival of fur traders, the establishment of military posts, and the eventual settlement of the area by European immigrants, who navigated the challenges of living on the Great Plains, including the threat of Indian attacks. Through the use of historical accounts, the author provides a view of the pioneers who shaped the future of Nebraska and the hardships they endured along the way. This book not only provides a comprehensive history of the settlement and development of the state of Nebraska, but also sheds light on the challenges faced by the Native American population who were already living there, and how their way of life was affected by the arrival of European settlers.
