Where can I find information on early Fort Duchesne
in Utah?
Agreka Books presents Indian
Summers: A Memoir of Fort Duchesne 1925-1935, a moving and detailed account.
Thought-provoking, sensitive, factual history by this
retired professional librarian. She includes Native American Folklore stories
and many of their photos. While her father supervised an experimental farm, the
author lived at Fort Duchesne during 1925-1935. She gives a detailed physical,
geographical, day-to-day, and emotional account of life there, and includes her
observation of the plight of her friends, the Uintahs and Ourays, who were
forced to live in the old Fort converted to an Indian Reservation. It changed
her forever and in ways that were in conflict with the opinions of the adults
around her.
