In this, the second volume of the Temple Buck Quartet, they push ever farther west in their quest for beaver pelts, exploring new country and encountering fresh adventures, some of them welcome, others not at all. This well-researched tale, told in Temple's own words, blends historical and fictional characters against a colorful backdrop of actual events, pungently flavored with gory battles with hostile Indians, homespun humor, and earthy romance, culminating in Temple's disappointing return to his Ohio birthplace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe TEMPLE BUCK QUARTET\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eA Rocky Mountain Odyssey\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVolume 1: Backbone of the World (1822-1824)\u003cbr\u003e Volume 2: Free Men (1824-1826)\u003cbr\u003e Volume 3: Shinin' Times  (1828-1833)\u003cbr\u003e Volume 4: Glory Days Gone Under (1833-1837)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEdward Louis Henry is a lifelong horseman and outdoorsman who has been a working cowhand, a Wild West performer, a WWII infantry sergeant, a US Foreign Service officer, and an executive speechwriter.
