The Girl Who Rode The Wild Bear: (Annotated and Expanded Edition) (The O'Ronin's Rye Collection: Classic Westerns for Today's Readers) (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

O'Ronin Rye always brings you the very latest in yesterday’s Westerns. A jilted husband with nothing left to lose; a wandering priest with a secret; a missing wife searching for her child; a beautiful young girl fighting for her virtue; two brutal mountain men determined to destroy everything good and pure to satisfy their greed; fur traders just trying to make a living; an assortment of Métis and Indians trying to adapt; an abused wolf-dog who has never known kindness; and a bodyguard she-bear trained to kill on command: all the ingredients for a good time on a Saturday night in the wilds of British Columbia. In this 1916 western by James Oliver Curwood, there’s something for everyone: beautiful descriptions of the majesty that is Canada from Manitoba to the coast of British Columbia; chase scenes; shootouts; fist fights; dog fights; BEAR fights, eternal love stories; exploitation of women and Indians by blackguards and multinational corporations; and the potential for unswerving love and loyalty from good men, women, and animals.
