His works on the Yellowstone, the fur trade, and on Missouri River steamboating were long recognized as definitive....His style was formal, clear, and undramatic. His works contain a mass of detail. He was typical of the Progressive era of American history in his strong belief in progress and in 'the divine mission of the Anglo-Saxon.'Chittenden also wrote the noted work ''History of early steamboat navigation on the Missouri River: life and adventures of Joseph La Barge''.
