The Call of the Wilderness
Author: Dave Vander Meer
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1491729740
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Dave Vander Meer was just eighteen years old when he set out on his own to explore the northern wilderness of Ontario. Winter would start in just a week, and there was a camp to build, traps to set, and food and furs to collect. To survive, he needed to call upon all his knowledge because the closest point of civilization was more than twenty miles away. Now, years later, he still looks back upon his time as a teenager in the woods with wonder. He had the chance to walk the trails and paddle the lakes as he experienced the excitement of eluding several brushes with death. Jump into a dream and experience the beauty, danger, and excitement that a trapper enjoys during his daily routines in The Call of the Wilderness. Author’s note: Thank you to Caitlyn Vander Meer for the great job of editing this book. It was more work than you expected. I guess my ninth grade grammar was misplaced somewhere over the last thirty-eight years.

Publisher: Leonaur Limited
ISBN: 9781782823476
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Two accounts of early western exploration This special Leonaur edition has been created for those readers interested in the lives of the American trappers and explorers of the early nineteenth century. Leonaur's editors have brought together two related accounts for good value and to give most readers the most detailed and expansive insights into the subject. The first work is a well known and highly regarded personal account by the trapper Osborne Russell. It is joined here by Captain Nathaniel Wyeth's own journal of his expedition into the Oregon country. Russell took part in Wyeth's expedition and these two works enable the reader to view their principal characters activities from different perspectives. This is an essential addition to the libraries of all those interested in the mountain men and trappers of the undiscovered west at the time when the 'the beaver shined.' Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.

Rangers, Trappers, and Trailblazers
Author: John Fraley
Publisher: Farcountry Press
ISBN: 1560377526
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
The North, Middle, and South Forks of the Flathead River drain some of the wildest country in Montana, including Glacier National Park and the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex. In Rangers, Trappers, and Trailblazers, John Fraley recounts the true adventures of people who earned their living among the mountains and along the cold, clear rivers in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Here are the stories of the intrepid Glacier Park Ranger Clyde Fauley and his young family using a cable bucket to reach their isolated cabin across the Middle Fork, trapper Slim Link’s fateful meeting with a grizzly bear in the deep woods of the North Fork, and the life and times of Henry Thol, “the ranger’s ranger,” who happily snowshoed hundreds of miles through deep snows and minus-40 cold to patrol the South Fork wilderness. Tragedies and near-misses abound: a fatal shootout, tangles with bears and packrats, a devastating train wreck, and a missing airplane. But these are balanced with tales of courage, endurance, and remarkable personal achievement. Fraley tells all in intriguing detail wrested from primary sources.
