In the Heart of the Rockies

A Story of Adventure in Colorado Sixteen-year-old English lad Tom Wade travels to Denver, Colorado, in 1860 to find his uncle Harry, a rugged hunter and gold prospector. Joining forces with his uncle and a loyal Native American ally named Chief Leaping Horse, Tom plunges into the untamed American West to search for fortune. The group faces relentless dangers, including hostile tribal encounters, navigating the uncharted rapids of the Colorado River, and surviving brutal mountain winters. First published in 1894, this edition is derived from the original book with 8 black & white illustrations by G. C. Hindley. As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
