The Hinterlands: A Mountain Tale in Three Parts

The Hinterlands: A Mountain Tale in Three Parts

by RobertMorgan (Author)

Synopsis

First order of business for the pioneer was finding their way. After that came marking, then clearing, and finally paving that way. Axing wilderness inroads inch-by-inch, linking settlement with settlement--this was the challenge. The Hinterlands is the story of a famly who found, marked, and paved their way into America's eastern frontier. Unfolding the voices of three generations of mountaineer storytellers who specialize in keeping listeners on the edge of their seats, this is fiction that plunks us down right into the thick of pioneer life.
