One Damn Good Book

Danger, excitement, despair, conquest, The Medicine Calf has it all. If you can hear the wild lonesome call of the Rocky Mountains, and you like the thrill of adventure in dangerous lands, this book is for you. A terrific acount of the life of a trapper turned indian warchief. This book is a study in Indian culture and life. Certain to keep even the most docile of city-slickers riveted to the action-packed story. Wishing the Rockies still offered such adventure, such a life of courage, truth, and honor, is the unescapable result of reading this wonderful tale.
