Reading a true account of a mountain man's travel from MO. to CA with trappers, and their encounters with Indians, Grizzlies, Spanish -- all with colorful detail from Indian wars (Crows vs. Blackfeet), capturing or killing Grizzlies (at risk or loss of life), and the sport the Spanish engage in (such as pitting mean bulls against mean bears) brings a different take on things than just reading a novel of the west. Worth the read.
