In 'Thirty One Years on the Plains and in the Mountains', William F. Drannan chronicles his firsthand experiences as a frontiersman in the American West during the mid-19th century. The book is written in a straightforward and unembellished style, reflecting the rugged and harsh conditions of frontier life. Drannan provides vivid descriptions of his encounters with Native American tribes, wildlife, and the challenges of survival in the untamed wilderness, offering a valuable glimpse into the realities of western expansion during this era. The narrative also highlights the resilience and resourcefulness required to thrive in such a demanding environment. Through his unvarnished storytelling, Drannan paints a compelling picture of the trials and triumphs of those who dared to venture into the unknown territories of the West. William F. Drannan's personal experiences as a frontiersman and scout lend authenticity and depth to 'Thirty One Years on the Plains and in the Mountains'. Drannan's intimate knowledge of the western landscape and its inhabitants infuses the narrative with a sense of immediacy and realism, capturing the spirit of adventure and danger that characterized this era of American history. His firsthand accounts offer valuable insights into the challenges and rewards of life on the frontier. Drannan's unique perspective as a participant in the events he describes adds credibility to the narrative, making it a captivating and informative read for those interested in the American West. I highly recommend 'Thirty One Years on the Plains and in the Mountains' to readers seeking an authentic and engaging portrayal of life on the American frontier. Drannan's narrative not only offers a compelling story of survival and exploration in the wild West but also sheds light on the complex interactions between settlers, Native American tribes, and the natural world. This book is a valuable contribution to the historical record of the American West and a must-read for enthusiasts of frontier literature.

Howes and others give scathing review of this work as unreliable. Drannan's wife may have actually written most of the book, based on her husband's stories. Drannan has himself as the rescuer of Olive Oatman, and a companion of Kit Carson.
