This home page is an on-line Research Center devoted to the history, traditions, tools, and mode of living, of the trappers, explorers, and traders known as the Mountain Men of the Rocky Mountains. This site is based on a commercial CD about the War of 1812. A very extensive and thorough personal web site. This site is brief but it has a nice map. See what the soldiers looked like at the Reenactors' Site.
Many people reenact historical events as a hobby, especially famous wars and battles.
