"Novelists commonly spin their tales around known events and put flesh on the bones of people we know only dimly through history; John Herrington also fills out his characters with motivation and soul. Fast-paced events and first-person narration admit us to Jedediah Smith's inner circle of friends—we share the rewards and hardships of life in frontier towns, in the saddle, and wading in cold, western beaver streams as the main character follows his moral imperative and exacts frontier justice."
—Eric Bye, Editor of Muzzle Blasts

"This book brings to life Jedediah Strong Smith in a historic fictionalized narrative. It is interesting that a Bible-carrying man of God like Jedediah Smith could have such a profound influence on Rocky Mountain fur history and exploration of the far west.... As long as Jed Smith influences the lives of men like John Herrington, he will continue to be an influence on history. I hope you find this book as enjoyable and inspirational as I did."
—A. J. White, White's Buffalo Trading Post

"John Herrington has begun his yarn in the primitive mountain area of western North Carolina in the first quarter of the nineteenth century.... John has spun a story containing all of the ingredients to form the glue that holds the reader spellbound. Reaching from the Great Smokey Mountains to the Rockies, it contains all the elements of a great frontier American novel."
—Earl Lanning, Muzzle Loading Rifle Builder & Storyteller
