As a youth, he developed an interest in sports, history and eventually writing. He attended University of Pennsylvania where he studied dentistry, while balancing his creative endeavors. One of his first published pieces was the article “A Day on the Delaware" (1902), followed by the novels Betty Zane (1903) and The Spirit of the Border (1906). His career spanned several decades and was often inspired by real-life settings and events.

Great story and a great listen! Thanks for the mental break!

The story itself was a good tale of pioneers & outlaws. Like the others said, the narrowest or was so bad at times it was distractingly comical.

[Randy Schermer · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Narrator does a horrible job. Stilted, forced, and mispronounced words in beginning chapters. Towards end, he is mockingly reading the words in some action scenes. Throught entire novel, read as though he could not wait for it to end.

Story is classic, and deserved better presentation. Not a story for modern snowflakes.

Just another Librivox filler. Scribd is a ripoff. If I wanted to listen to Librivox, I'd get Librivox.

[Robin Thayer · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I like how the author paints a picture of the beautiful landscape. Makes you feel like your there. I don't like how there's a little commercial at the beginning of each and every chapter.

[Daniel Jackson · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Very meh.......... the auction on the action scenes in the end I found to be funny. More or less a decent story
