Wilderness Giant Edition #4: Ordeal (A Wilderness Giant Edition Western)
Back before the poison of civilization had corrupted the wilds of the Rocky Mountains, brave mountain men struggled to carve a life from virgin land. But few of these hardy souls had ventured beyond the mountains to the Oregon Territory and the vast Pacific Ocean. Lewis and Clark, Kit Carson and other living legends blazed trails through the unknown regions, often leading settlers. When one party of pioneers disappeared, Nate Kind and his mentor, Shakespeare McNair, were hired to track them down. The perils along the way were unending, but if Shakespeare and Nate survived, they would earn the greatest reward imaginable – the courage to live free.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR David L. Robbins was born on Independence Day 1950. He has written more than three hundred books under his own name and many pen names, among them: David Thompson, Jake McMasters, Jon Sharpe, Don Pendleton, Franklin W. Dixon, Ralph Compton, Dean L. McElwain, J.D. Cameron and John Killdeer. Robbins was raised in Pennsylvania. When he was seventeen he enlisted in the United States Air Force and eventually rose to the rank of sergeant. After his honorable discharge he attended college and went into broadcasting, working as an announcer and engineer (and later as a program director) at various radio stations. Later still he entered law enforcement and then took to writing full-time. At one time or another Robbins has lived in Pennsylvania, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Montana, Colorado and the Pacific Northwest. He spent a year and a half in Europe, traveling through France, Italy, Greece and Germany. He lived for more than a year in Turkey. Today he is best known for two current long-running series – Wilderness, the generational saga of a Mountain Man and his Shoshone wife – and Endworld is a science fiction series under his own name started in 1986. Among his many other books, Piccadilly Publishing is pleased to be reissuing ebook editions of Wilderness, Davy Crockett and, of course, White Apache.
