O ovoj e-knjizi
Sequel to the Golden Spur Award winner The Medicine Horn
Lemuel Hawke and his fifteen-year-old son, Morgan, are used to hard work and a hard life—they'd scratched out a living as farmers on unforgiving land. But nothing prepared them for the dangers of the trail they follow west, heading for the rich fur-trapping grounds of the Rocky Mountains.
Nature threatens the Hawkes with storms, floods, and deadly cold—but Nature's fury is not the only peril father and son must face. As they follow the trail laid by those who went before, so others follow them: an unscrupulous fur trader out to claim other men's wealth as his own; a man bent on avenging his murdered brother; a woman scorned.
Luckily, Lem and Morgan have allies: a band of trappers and mountain men whose gruff exteriors mask fierce loyalty and hard-won wisdom...and the Indians who see in young Morgan the beginnings of a powerful strength of spirit.
Praise for Jory Sherman
"Trapper's Moon takes us on a rough but exhilarating journey of discovery with a colorful group of trappers and Indians, bound for the Shining Mountains. It is quite a ride."—Elmer Kelton, author of The Good Old Boys
"A vigorous look at the world of the mountain men of the old West."—Publishers Weekly
"Jory paints word pictures with remarkable skill. His characters come to life against a rich historical background."—Janet Dailey, author of Aspen Gold
