His quest is fulfilled and then some: the hostile and arid environment, and the threat of ambush or robbery, are constant hindrances that require immense grit to surmount. Fortunately, Charles finds a true friend with whom he attempts to combat the adversities of wilderness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAltsheler describes the vast open frontier evocatively, placing the reader in a time when equal measures of freedom and danger were abundant. Throughout Mr. Wayne's traversals, we're reminded of how difficult it was to survive - let alone thrive - in the Old West. The beauty of the unforgiving land forms a vibrant backdrop to the scrapes and challenges our heroes must face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoseph A. Altsheler was a prolific writer, authoring a total of over fifty novels as well as numerous short stories. Most of his writing was aimed at children, with the setting most commonly being the Wild West. After a period of hardship when he and his family were in Europe during World War One, the author health began to fail - perishing in 1919 at age 57, Altsheler's final works were inspired by the adversity he faced during the Great War.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-7339499\"\u003eJoseph a.
