Über diesen Titel

Embark on a thrilling journey through the life of mountain man Joe Meek, as he navigates the wild west from his youth at the tender age of 18 in 1829 to his later years serving as Marshall of the Oregon Territory. A man of countless adventures, Meeks tales of survival against hunger, thirst, and danger are riveting, brought to life with his unique humor and charm. His interactions with historical figures like Kit Carson, Jedediah Smith, and President James Polk add a rich context to his stories. Authored from direct interviews with Meek himself, this book not only offers a glimpse into the colorful life of a legendary figure but also paints a vivid picture of the history of the Rocky Mountain region and the Oregon Territory. Join us as we delve into the high-stakes escapades of this lively, often inebriated, sometimes heroic, and definitely unforgettable character.
