Filled with raw adventure, the joyous story of life in the untamed wilds of the American frontier continues.
In this second volume, Joe Meek comes to light as pioneer, sheriff, US Marshal, and legislator. Through his wondrous adventures, he becomes an important part of Oregon's formative years, as well as that of the entire Northwest.
Authentically human, Meek details the struggles of women, Native Americans, missionaries, trappers, early settlers, explorers, and the Hudson's Bay company, and how they all came together to shape a territory-and finally a state.
With vivid descriptions of the wilderness and Meek's unfiltered observations, Win Blevins brings to life a bygone era of adventure and danger in this colorful memoir.
