Thus perished one of the greatest, although the least known, of all the great characters of the American west. A tireless explorer, a skillful trader and a fearless ad- venturer, Smith was also in addition to all this, a pol- ished gentleman and an humble and devout Christian. Chapter XXI Travels of Bonneville and Walker Travels of Bonneville and Walker In 1832, Captain Benjamin Bonneville, an officer of the regular army, obtained leave of absence to conduct a trading and trapping expedition in...to the mountains of the west. Bonneville has found an able chronicler in Washington Irving, and because of this book the cap- tain obtained a fame all out of proportion to the actual value of his achievements. In fact, Bonneville discov- ered nothing that the fur-traders had not already been perfectly familiar with for a decade or more, but his able lieutenant, Mr. Walker, made a remarkable trip overland to California by the central route, being sec- ond only to Jedediah Smith in accomplishing this feat.
