The silent places

To describe this book in two words: Wilderness adventure. If you like books about the raw wilderness of Canada's forests, this book is for you. A story of two men hired by the Hudson's Bay Company to ensure the honor system existing between the Indians and HBCO remains untainted by a defaulter. Set in a time when roads in Ontario's north country hadn't even been dreamed about, the story covers hundreds of miles over four seasons. It is likely that the details are more accurate and believable due to the fact that it is not a historical fiction but written as a current day thriller of 1904.

It began as a challenge... For Dallas McCabe, America's most famous reporter, no problem was too complex, no injustice too minor. She would do anything for a story. Even trek up a mountain outside Burrowsville, South Carolina, through fourteen miles of dense wilderness. There, in the heart of nowhere, she found back-to-nature survivalist Daniel Masters. Big as a bear, with a lush beard and wild black hair, Daniel looked like a half-feral mountain man as he ordered her off his land. But what had begun as a challenge soon became a test of wills, and Dallas was more determined than ever to leave the mountain with more than just a story ....

Daniel Boone

"Daniel Boone was an important historical figure before, during and after the American Revolutionary War. He was born on November 2, 1734. In his long life of 86 years, America went from a mostly unexplored backwoods wilderness that was a British colony to a settled and developed area. Probably the most important single accomplishment of Daniel Boone was his development of the Cumberland Gap as the only direct transit route through the Appalachian Mountains from Virginia to Kentucky. Daniel Boone explored the gap, made the gap wider and helped immigrants reach it. By 1800, 200,000 immigrants had crossed the Cumberland Gap to reach Kentucky. At a time when there were no roads and only Indian trails, Daniel Boone crossed back and forth so many times it is hard to keep count. Daniel Boone traveled as far west as Nebraska. He traveled by horse or by foot. He was a businessman and a politician. He served in the Virginia state legislature. He went broke many times. He was a man of peace who tried to avoid conflicts but nevertheless was involved in battles with the Indians and with the British during the French and Indian Wars and the American Revolutionary War."--Amazon.com.
