The story really brings to life the romance of living in the early 19th century. And even though there are plenty of things that are not very realistic in the novel, (A boy living with grizzly bears for much of his childhood, all the while teaching himself to read by stealing books from sheep herders) it is still a very good and beleivable read.

Great book! I really enjoyed reading it.

Lee Nelson keeps his notourious standard with this book. I really enjoyed reading it. Though, some of the contents were hard to believe they were historically based, it was an excellent read none the less. I have always enjoyed learning about Old Ephraim, and this was very educational in that aspect. The book had a great storyline and flow. Thanks Lee for another Great book!! I read it easily in one day
