Mountain man

by Vardis Fisher

Outstanding book about the Mountain Men during the fur trapping days. A novel of man and woman during that time. Based in part on the life of John Johnston "The Crow Killer". The film Jeremiah Johnson starring Robert Redford was based in part on this novel. Excellent reading.
