Though the historical references in this story are a matter of record, the story is not about the politics of the time. It is about a young girl’s emotional struggle as she tries to hold on to the only life she knew. The events were true, the struggles were true, but because I chose to change names and time table of certain events, the tale is a fictional biography. ~Carmen Ruggero
A mountain man begins his adventures where no other wishes to go - inside the ravenous wilderness, filled with deathly hardships and natural beauties. Bears and wolves are not the only dangers: a man in these parts can die of starvation, disease, or dreadful injuries. Not even territorial natives will let a man live through the winters. For Thomas, the mountain man of this story, wilderness is home. Purchase the full version from Lulu.com:
