How the American West Was REALLY Won: Montana's 1800s

The real story of Montana's 19th century isn't what you learned in school. Before it was "Big Sky Country," before the cattle ranches and copper mines, this land belonged to the Crow, Blackfoot, Salish, and Shoshone nations. Then came the mountain men. Then the gold rush. Then the cavalry. Then the buffalo were gone. This is the untold saga of how Montana was forged in fire, blood, and ambition—from the 1800s fur trade to Custer's Last Stand at the Little Bighorn, from the lawless gold camps of Virginia City to the rise of the copper kings in Butte. We explore: The ancient nations who called this land home for millennia The devastating smallpox epidemics that rewrote the balance of power Red Cloud's War—the one the Native Americans actually won The industrial slaughter of the buffalo Custer's disastrous miscalculation The copper empire that built Butte into "the richest hill on Earth" The homesteaders who bet everything on 160 acres of prairie If you love American history, the Wild West, or stories of triumph and tragedy on an epic scale, this one's for you. 🔔 Subscribe and hit the bell for more deep dives into the real history of the American West.
