Arrow Rock: Crossroads of the Missouri Frontier

by Michael Walsh Dickey

At the crossroads of America, the town of Arrow Rock was established in Missouri's Boonslick region where Indian traces, the Santa Fe Trail, and the Missouri River converge. Michael Dickey, the site administrator at the Arrow Rock State Historic Site, provides a rich narrative of Arrow Rock's rise in politcal and economic prowess, its decline after the Civil War, and its rebirth in the twenty century as a major historic site visited by nearly 200,000 people annually. Dickey's work is the most comprehensive history of Arrow Rock ever published and will stand as the primary reference for years to come
