On the Warpath with the Shoshone: A Mountain Man's Perspective
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 окт 2024
- War is hell. I know that sounds cliché but there’s a simple, irrefutable truth in that short yet powerful statement, one that is unchanging through time. Although our modern weapons may not be the same now as they were in the past, the end result is the same. Death, dismemberment, chaos, and pain. Grieving families, survivor guilt, and, sometimes, an elation that borders on the euphoric.
For tribes like the Shoshone, Cheyenne, Blackfeet, and the Crow, war was an unfortunate yet necessary part of life. And for centuries untold these tribes clashed with their enemies on battlegrounds with no names, in skirmishes long forgotten. And the warriors who emerged victorious are likewise lost to history. Well, on today’s episode we’ll take a glimpse behind the curtain. Find out what it was like to accompany the Shoshone into battle, to hear the cries of victory mixed with the agonizing wails of mourning.
This is the fourth installment William T. Hamilton’s My Sixty Years on the Plains, chapter’s 7 and 8 if you’re reading along at home. Also discussed is Hamilton’s comparison between the Shoshone and Cheyenne, his opinion on the bravery of mountain lions, tips on shot placement when hunting any animal, and the most dangerous aspect of bear hunting. #history #wildwest #oldwest

Thanks for listening
Sending love and a tad of dinero 1st week September in purest love...gratefully.
I started listening to your podcast in the last few months, so I'm still catching up on past episodes. But I thank you for all the hard work it takes to produce each of these. You do very thorough research on each topic, which is the key to producing a quality production. Also, you are blessed with an engaging and imaginative verbal delivery of the subject, which is the other key to a good podcast. Thanks, Josh.
I appreciate that. Thanks!
A most gratifying surprise for my Tuesday morning! Thanks Josh👍👍✌😎
Good morning
Damn a bonus episode? Gotta love it🤠 thanks boss man!
Thank YOU
Great episode Josh 👏
Thanks Daniel
You Sir are the everloving bomb!❤❤❤
Wooden Leg! Hell yes! I first read that book in my teens and have read it many times since. Good video for history lovers. I've never checked out On the Warpath. I think I used to avoid books about the western caucasian experience--but I am learning the old lesson about two sides to everything.
Well alright alright we got us some more amazing work to appreciate.
Great thing to wake up to thanks josh
My pleasure
I really love these readings. Please never stop. That's all.
Thank you
Another great video!
Thank you
I am really starting to enjoy listening to these stories. You do a great job, and bring them to life.
Hope to support your work !
Thank you!!!
Alright lots of new stuff. Love it
Hey congratulations on your new job lol I hope it works out for you. I love your contact always looking forward to new post.
What u mean dude I been waiting to hear your voice. Highlight of my afternoon
I appreciate your content. I only found your channel in the past month. I’m making my way through all your videos. Already recommend it to some old Jarhead friends who are also into the genre. Best channel on RUclips! I hope you find success making these and can keep it up! All the best!
Thanks Brian!
I'm sure there was more than a fair amount of tongue waggin goin on from these characters but the accounts are treasures non the less.
Much success.👍🍻
Most definitely
Hey friend. Long time Listener and I dont know why my instincts told me to come to you with this but I had the pleasure of getting a audible token and of course I went to go read the same 1 of 20 books...one of my favorites being lonesome dove..but after 20+ readings I just cant this time..I have lost no love for the series, and the history alike..but can you talk about or at least confirm the extremely unique but strong presence of sadness? not even around the story or book itself just...the time period I guess? Knowing the ending already? Actually the scene where (I forget who) was watching the comanches and just sat n watched in awe in sunset and said these are the last of these people that are actually free etc. Just a whole way of life, time period, bunch of experiences just gone for forever....its just so tragic and I feel we stray further and further from it each day just fills me with such utter sadness.
It's a sad story for sure. Lots of loss and change over a very short period.
Always on the lookout for your vids to drop..can't wait to see this one.
Thanks man
Hey mate, hope your full- time venture goes well, even though I can't afford subscriptions. Don't forget those of us only on RUclips.
Your awesome and awesome video be safe out there big fan of wild west too
Thanks! You too!
Your welcome dude no problem you rock
I gotcha Josh. Just signed up for Into History. Already on your page of podcasts. Good luck with all of this. I have a feeling you will do well, even by bashing us Okies.
Hey thanks man. If you could only have one knife for bushcraft survival what would it be?
A1. gotta love a good tomahawk. Beaver Bill in Ohio ,makes a danm fine tomahawk.
Love your great reads!
Thank you!
Great episode as always sir! I have a feeling things will continue upward for you, unfortunately I am a bit of a ludite and completely averse to change. I typically put off learning new ways to do things until I am absolutely forced to. I love your work and especially your quick response time, the latter is a rarity on this platform. Good luck in the future and keep doing what you do.
Thank you
@@WildWestExtravaganza no problem. I do think I'll check out your merchandise though within the next month. Btw, I'm serious af about this. Get a compilation or something out I'd definitely buy the music. I love The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly style music I don't care that people say Spaghetti Westerns are the worst. Those "ya"s and gunshots over a twangy guitar with a driving snaredrum get me every single time.
There's a wild west extra playlist I made on Spotify. It's free.
@@WildWestExtravaganza I'll give it a listen since I follow you there too.
Thanks!
Welcome!
Going through these after some Man surgery. Great content! Now I realize our Indian brothers would not have used anesthesia before doing much the same surgery! ✌️😖
Hope you're feeling better
Damn, that intro
I really enjoyed reading "My 60 years on the plains" thanks to your channel and totally loved it!
Now ill keep following along here! It's hard finding good follow up books especially when finishing a great series but your list has been a great help!!! Heck I haven't even watched this video yet and already commenting lol.
Ha thanks
Great episode! Im on an android when i watch so ill get on my pc to check out which apps i can use for into history. Looks pretty cool and congratulations on the leap to full time! Im planning on supporting how i can, I really like your work, and there appear to be quite a few other channels to watch too!
Awesome, thank you! But if you normally listen on your android log in on there. It'll be easier.
Stay Hard
How did I miss this?
I dunno
Love your podcasts, have watched and listened to them all, particularly all related to the Johnson county war. A bit of advice- stop the mid story ads. I understand that you are making money from them, but they break the flow of the story to a point of total aggravation for the listener.
Thanks Tom. All of these episodes are available completely ad free if you're interested.
I very much enjoy your videos. I'm on a small social security check. I can't afford to contribute. Many thanks to those who do contribute
I'll go rhythm
If I come across some gold I'll join the inta history
Lil short right now
I know the feeling
@@WildWestExtravaganza any more stories about the Blackfeet on the horizon?
I think so
Hey Josh, it ain't Wednesday 😂
Close enough
Yetehay
🤙
Me love story.
Me grateful
👍🏼🇺🇸
Great episode again Josh a great way to spend an hour, thanks for commenting on Billy's scars when 1or2 didn't agree wit me.
So in an unrelated note did you know that all of the Kennedy boys are buried In Robert E Lees front yard?
Thanks!
Thank YOU
