amateur writer style

Although this book was self-published and not that expensive, it was still not a very good value for the read. Even if this story is nonfiction as it is presented it's poorly done and the ending is poor a poor climax. The rider should have had more collaborative input before publishing.

Modern mountain man might be a stretch

Revisado: 03-11-22

Interesting enough, more about a modern mans struggles with the distraction of real life than a frontiersman's discovery. Still, the perspective and challenge of finding oneself in the wilderness is enlightening to those of us who consider themselves outdoorsy but rarely leave our technologies behind when we backpack. Most would never challenge themselves as Taylor does so respect to the author in that regard. I grew up in Idaho and have hiked these areas. They are rugged and unforgiving and anyone who takes that challenge on in the winter with a 60lb pack will find themselves and their limits. Worth the time if you love the outdoors and want to experience the challenge through someone elses eyes.

Interesting, well narated

One of the better perspectives on cryptic animals. There were a few geographical errors, notably Faulk.

Raw, unbiased and truly a look into the real Steve

Revisado: 12-03-21

Why the loyalty from colleagues , now I know! I had heard from friends who worked with Steve how difficult he was. Why they continued on receiving his abuse I could not understand. The answer is complicated, this biography is the best explanation I have found so far. It shares, not explains or apologizes for his unhinged approach to collaboration. Long but never dull or boring this is worth your read.

Very accurate, I grew up in this region 👍👍

Revisado: 02-07-21

Although it's not a novel it's well written and the vocabulary is suited for the subject. I grew up and hiked in these locations in the '80s. they have changed immensely since then but much of it was unspoiled when I explored this region. This man lived a miraculous life given all the hazards and near death experiences he had. What a real treasure historically. Good lesson in preservation and how it can be lost so quickly. We can learn many things from this account. my pioneer heritage settled just 20 years after this in the same area. Fort Hall still exists as does the bannock tribe. There is now a reservation in this exact location. I would surmise that the land and fort we're returned to the original
inhabitents due to their good relationships with local leaders.

Good, not too far fetched as others have been

Revisado: 01-01-21

I like Rusty stories sometimes they get a little out of hand and unbelievable. This series is one of the better ones.
