About this audiobook
LEGEND OF THE WILDERNESS.
Christopher “Kit” Carson was a true American legend: He could shoot a man at 200 yards, trap and hunt better than the most skilled Indian, and follow any trail – even in the dead of night. His courage and strength as an Indian fighter earned him respect throughout the West. But all of his skills were put to the test when he got caught up in a manhunt no one wanted him to make. The beautiful daughter of a Missouri colonel had been taken by a group of trappers heading for the mountains, and Kit was determined to find her – even if he had to risk his life to do it!
