Book excerpt: Excerpt from St. Louis as It Is Today The stirring story of the West is so bound up with the historic Missis sippi that to tell of the one is to speak of the other. Early in the sixteenth century Spain sent the flower of her hidalgos to investigate the New World. Bold men and adventurers they were, seeking gold and conquest across the Spanish Main. Landing in the West Indies, they fought their way into Peru, and conquered Mex ico and Central America. One of them, the restless Hernando De Soto, sailed with an expedition for the North Ameri can mainland. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
