Title: The beginning of a great series
Review: This is the first book in a sequence of titles, divided into four series. It begins with a family which has terrible tragedy occur, due to the false accusations of a village young woman about one of the Holt family's sons. His denials are not believed by many townspeople, and he is forced to flee with his brother, who is a newlywed.What follows is a remarkable set of stories, beginning with the adventures which follow the accused brother's prior travels with the Lewis and Clark expedition to the Pacific Ocean, the establishment of a settlement in the west, and many adventures of the various main characters. Once this first book is finished, the reader will be very anxious to continue reading as quickly as possible. It is a remarkable exercise in writing. If the reader likes the Sacket series, by L'Amour, and the Mountain Man series and its spinoffs by Johnstone, then this series is a definite must!
