Review:
"A courageous and unrelenting posse on the trail of a furious and desperate wilderness outlaw more animal¿more a ghost¿than man: Lean and bloody, meticulously researched, The Mad Trapper of Rat River is a dark and haunting story of human endurance, adventure, and will that speeds along like the best fiction." -- Bob Butz
The Arctic trails do indeed have their secret tales, and one of the best is that of The Mad Trapper of Rat River, equal to the legends of those other 1930s outlaws, Bonnie and Clyde and John Dillinger. Now author Dick North (of course) may have solved the mystery of the Mad Trapper's true identity, thereby enhancing the saga.
-Thomas McIntyre, author of Seasons & Days: A Hunting Life
