His exploits on the American frontier inspired dozens of dime novels, but these wildly popular books belie the complexities of the real Kit Carson. When the West was a mystery to most Americans, Carson mastered it, and his expertise made him not only famous but also sought-after. Eventually, by helping to spur a migration that would change the West forever, he unwittingly became an agent in the destruction of the life he loved.
