Description
This booklet is a sample of a full-length book. It is Chapter 7 in Ameritrekking and Highpointing: Finding the Lost River Range. If you already have that book, don't buy this booklet.
This short story tells the tale of the author's visit to Big Hole National Battlefield in Montana. Big Hole is a unit of the National Park System dedicated to preserving the site of an 1877 battle between US soldiers and Nez Perce "Indians." The visit took place in the same year (1997) as the third Ameritrek, the subject of the main book. This is one chapter from that book, so you can travel vicariously to a little-visited park and sample the writing at the same time.
The main book, Finding the Lost River Range, resulted from an 8,000-mile, three-week road trip visiting highpoints as well as local and national parks in 20 states.
Over the years the author drove more than 125,000 mile—the equivalent of five times around the Earth at the equator—and spent over a year on the road. He went to 45 highpoints and many other strange and wonderful places. He continues to travel and write. Buy this sample booklet and join the adventure today!
