Description

Set against the early days of the Cariboo Gold Rush in British Columbia, the book follows the fortunes of the American-born Bowers family, and the friends and enemies they meet in the Cariboo. Several genuinely historical figures, such as Billy Barker and Judge Begbie, figure as characters in the book. A lively adventure story with a fairly authentic historical background.
