Discusses the life and work of Jedediah Smith, an explorer of the American West and leader of mountain men. Born in 1799, Jedediah Smith became an important explorer of the American West. He was the first American to cross the Sierra Nevadas and the Great Basin and the first American to reach California by an overland route. As a fur trader, he was considered a leader of the mountain men. His expeditions helped open the West to thousands of emigrants, changing the shape of the United States.
