Shinin' Times!: One Trapper's Personal Chronicle of the American Rocky Mountain Fur Trade, 1828 1833 (Temple Buck Quartet)

In this third volume of the Temple Buck Quartet, Temple returns to the Rockies in 1828, rejoins his trapping group, and resumes the carefree life of the American fur trapper where he left two years earlier. Temple and his companions explore uncharted, beaver-rich country, gaining valuable experience in a changing and expanding fur trade. Their personal lives change as well, taking on new responsibilities while enjoying the freedom of the Rocky Mountains. The rich flavors of this life are much improved by the group’s now wider knowledge, deeper experience, and greater appreciation of everything that living in the American wilderness offers to bold men.
