This thrilling adventure story follows the exploits of two young Englishmen, Alfred and Francis, who set off on a hunting trip in the Rocky Mountains of Canada. Along the way, they encounter various dangers and challenges, from treacherous terrain to hostile wildlife to a group of Native Americans. Ballantyne's vivid descriptions and fast-paced narrative make for a rollicking read that captures the spirit of exploration and adventure in the 19th century.
