Loving the mountain man adriana anders

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 The Mountain ManRich with description the author paints an amazingly details picture of the naturally beautiful mountain landscape You feel like you are there watching the wildlife in the trees and by the river with the air on your face and the earth underfoot I noticed another review says that this is overly descriptive and written in the aristocratic style of Pride Prejudice However I see that as a compliment to the author s writing Just like Pride Prejudice the story takes place in a time long past somewhere around the early 1800s when men would set out to explore the unknown wilderness working hard to survive the winters and harsh conditions to once again be part of the local fur trade The narrative and language used is only fitting for such a story and I m impressed that the author was able to re create this old fashioned style of writing I highly recommend this For a mountain man something as simple as coffee requires effort gathering wood creating a fire building up the flames for the pot to heat upon everything done on a stiff cold winter morning It really made me appreciate my warm home and coffee maker both completely free from grizzly bear attack.
