Bozeman Trail

If PBS wasn’t so liberal and one sided I would donate.

Easy marks for the Natives....greedy white men get got

Vast landscapes without a trace that a human being had ever walked there.

And plus after the white man broke the treaties they didn't trust the word of the white man and the land was not for sale

The Bozeman trail the army built fort on the Bozeman and the Indian attack the forts and killed soldiers and it started a war bone cannot attack a federal fort without starting a war just like the rebels attack fort Sumter in south Carolina

The very first
winnebago

Thru The Doctrine of Discovery made claims to d land illegal.

they were the greedy criminals. just like the government is today. the american tradition

PBS sucks. Living large on the government teat, they can't help but bring out the begging bowl constantly asking for even more from gullible viewers.

Get a few minutes of history then and then on and on with the Telethon and advertising👎

When I was a kid, my parents had this bold idea of heading to Montana with a Conestoga wagon on the Bozeman trail, with hopes of finding gold. I must admit, I was scared and unsure if we'd ever make it. However, much to my surprise, we managed to navigate through the challenges and arrived just fine. Although we didn't strike gold as intended, fate had a different plan for us, and we found ourselves getting involved in the fur trade. As a result, our family discovered the essence of the American dream, and looking back, it was a decision well worth taking. This experience taught me that sometimes in life, you have to be willing to take risks to uncover unexpected opportunities.

Very interesting - thank you!

Im 15 minutes in and it just sounds like a story of a bunch of animals.

More like Invasion of the Euro-Trash. These are truly revolting people, the scum of the Old World. The natives should have been left in peace._

As it should be! NativeAmerican Comanche ❄️🌎❄️🤣👌❄️

A great documentary

It's disgusting how proud America continues to be of the largest indigenous genocide in human history, Shamelessly, as if it were our right to remove the original occupants from their home. All in the name of liberty and justice for all.

did they miss about the genocide of the Indigenous Peoples in the process and what a jerk John Bozeman was

The Bozeman Trail went RIGHT THROUGH my great grandfather's property in Montana. They housed thousands of passersby.

Why were natives always wrapped in blankets? Was it cause they didn’t have clothes?

Indians were trying to fight the us army, the confederacy, the British, French, and our own people. I always wonder what it would of been like if the Natives could have just banned together. Or all the poc banning together. We didn’t stand a chance. But we also knew that back then too.

Natives were just trying to protect the lands. 😢

The government did so wrong by the native Americans and First Nations. The treaties that were “signed” did wrong by the Natives. I am still confused why settlers wanted to eliminate different languages, strong spirituality, cultures. It’s literally what gives people hope to move forward.

Any thoughts as to why they didn’t like native culture?

Alex Murdaugh and family (South Carolina) would make a great video.

It's terrible that the husband would leave and never come back leaving the wife and children in a sort of limbo. She was stuck waiting for letters from him and couldn't remarry if he never wrote to her.

so much yak yak .. would be good without all the sales

Clash of culture=a genocide.

I wish the Native Americans had won...

I was reading my Great Great Great Gransmother's diary of her experience on the Bozeman Trail . .One sentence caught my attention on page 94 " I am getting a little tired of my daughter Nellie asking "Are we there yet?""

the parasitic cannibalistic eurotrash JU nazi is an evil criminal invasive invasive species

Wait . If FEDDERMAN is such a Great Experienced Professional Officer , why did he go over the Ridge ? He got Suckered by the same Tactics as the Mongols used 600 Years Earlier .

What kind of Higher Ups would Arm these Soldiers with Out dated Rifles to go Fight Indians ?

Great story ❤I really enjoyed it 🎉

Everyone is guilty of crimes against man and nature .. especially those who murdered all those beautiful buffalo bears 😢😢 and many others...the natives which these A holes call Indians even this ignorant narrator uses that term..the natives had every right to not accept thee invaders..

Dance with wolfs ❤❤sad for my Indian brothers and sisters still fighting for their mana.

PAINFUL to watch with all that back and forth and call this call that stuff going on

It's stupid what some of mankind will do for a metal we call gold. I am glad I never had the desire for such useless things.

Why didn’t they simply build a star fort out of stone cut so perfectly you can’t fit paper between it, Corey from hundreds of miles away

Edit out the donation segments! No wonder this thing is two hours long!

I have always had a deep interest in history. My grandfather was a Texas Ranger and my father served on a Heavy Cruiser during World War II, and ended up living in Japan after the war. Hearing their stories, combined with trips I took 3 summers in a row as a kid to the American West with an organization called "Myers Mountain Men (out of Austin, TX in the 70s), fueled my keen fascination with history. Growing up in Latin America, Brazil to be specific, also gave me experiences that most young people my age didn't necessarily have. In College, I realized that history came easily to me because I enjoyed it so much. As a result, I ended up receiving a minor in history while working towards my MA in International Relations at the University of Texas. It wasn't even something that I planned, but as it turned out I had enough credit hours to qualify for the additional degree. My love of history and such interrelated fields as anthropology, archaeology, paleontology, and social studies, to name a few, have given me a whole new perspective on life that I might otherwise never had. I love to travel as much as possible and explore new places, whether they be in some hard-to-reach, far-off country, or just down the road from where I live. For example, I recently moved to Florida and I am fascinated by the history that exists in this part of the world, whether it be the founding of St. Augustine by Spain long before English pilgrims landed in Jamestown or Plymouth Rock, or exploring for fossilized Megalodon teeth, the largest shark ever to live in our planet's oceans. Finding these fossils, some of which can be up to 20 million years old, and reach 6 inches in length, is an amazing experience. They belonged the to the largest sharks ever to swim in our oceans, some reaching 60 feet in length and having the strongest bite force of any creature ever to live on Earth, and now it is in your hand. That, my friends, is one of the coolest parts of history and how it interelates with other areas of interest or study.

Why is it that other PBS shows will not allow comments pretty much that's cowardly thing to do

I fall in love for this video

Just take the Oregon trail and you can see the seven temples... And then they were put away in 1883 hope you made it in time

I notice everyone sheds tears for the white settlers but nobody discusses the atrocities visited upon the Indian

The technology of the horse destroyed the plains
