Publisher Description
When the rest of the West was already won...the mountains remained unspoiled and deadly. The men and women who tamed this savage land were tough, lawless and, when necessary, as mean as the traps they carried. They lived by a private code of proud honor and swift justice. Burly, Isaac Beard was the living embodiment of that mountain code. To survive, he fought his way to a safe haven near Spirit Lake in the Colorado upcountry, forged an alliance with the untamed Ute Indians and made a place where generations of Beards resided in safety.

"I enjoyed this historical novel by Havill. You can tell he's done a lot of research about the setting of the series (Port McKinney, WA), the timber industry and the work of a doctor in 1892. I liked the cast of characters and the race to stop the cholera epidemic before it destroys the town."

" While I enjoyed the book, it is an interesting story, it seemed the author didn't know how to end it. It seemed to me that in the mist of the climax the author just suddenly wraps it up. "

" I read almost 3/4 of it and just couldn't finish it-slow, plodding. "
