About the author

Roger William Conant

b. 1895

Best known today for Hiking Westward and for the later publication of Mercer’s Belles, this early-20th-century writer left behind vivid firsthand and historical writing tied to the American West. His work has endured because it feels close to the journey itself—observant, practical, and easy to sink into.
