Product Description "I felt my eyebrows curl, knew I had only minutes to escape the flames. In a blanket of smoke, I stumbled down the bluff to the river. A solid blanket of flame lay across the Flathead. I clawed up the trail—around the house—flames crackling around my boots—past the spring. Felt plowed ground. Forced open swollen eyes to peer into smoke. Dropped into my escape hole. Smoke. Leaped out and ran. Fire roared behind me. Make it…breathe…can make it…hit barbed wire, fell flat to crawl under. Lost my hat. Reached for it. Stupid. Don’t need hat…crawled under the fence and groped my way to the tracks, slid down the bank to the culvert. A storm of smoke funneling though it nearly flattened me. Where now?" Harry Younger went to Montana thinking it would be a love affair. Instead, it was war. Join him as he battles the Spirit of the Aknissal to keep his dream. If you enjoy Roughin’ It In Montana, don’t miss The Sheriff’s Wife…coming soon.

    Great story, 2006-07-11 It only took me a day and a half to finish this book. It was a fantastic read! I grew up in the Spokane area and wish that I had heard of this story earlier.
    C.K.Crigger (author of the Boothenay Irons Gunsmith series), 2002-03-08 Harry Younger is either the most unfortunate man alive--or the luckiest. He falls into a frozen river, but finds a hole in the ice and escapes. He gets caught in a forest fire, but outruns the flames. He suffers a broken back, but lives to walk and work again.This tale introduces us to a young man who goes west in the early 1900s to make his fortune. What he finds in Montana is hardship and adventure, and a romance that lasts until the end of his days. Harry Younger was a real person and Pfeiffer brings him to life to a degree that you feel you could walk up and shake his hand. What a wonderful story. What a wonderful book. Thanks, Pat Pfeiffer!
