In the intervening years Smith became the first explorer to recognize South Pass as the gateway to the Far West, the first overlander to reach California and travel up the coast to the Columbia River, and the first white man to cross the Sierra Nevada and the Great Basin from west to east. The "Splendid Wayfaring" follows in novelistic detail the history-making adventures of Smith and his companions.
