Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. First Edition. From page 3: This book brings together the narratives, mostly legendary, about a frontiersman famous in the nineteenth century, Mike Fink. .the danger, and the violence of three frontiers shaped Fink's life and the stories based upon it. In the years when his countrymen fought the British and the Indians for the Pennsylvania frontier - the gateway to the Mississippi Valley - he was born and reared there. Later during the decades when the Mississippi and its tributaries were routes of the vast westward movement, he frolicked, fought, and worked as a river boatman. At the last, as a trapper, he followed the Missouri to its headwaters, and he was a mountain man in the Rockies when his life ended." It took 22 years for the authors to this new book on Mike Fink and it is wonderful. Once picked up, you cannot put it down. This edition, in my humble judgement, is better than the first book written by Blair and Meine. Pages: xiv-287. Small stamp identifying the previous owner on the frontis page.
