Trailing Louis L'Amour from California to Alaska (Trailing Louis L'Amour)

When Louis L'Amour wrote about a cave near a trail . . it was there. Here are the comprehensive books which help you find those caves and tell you about the land, the people and the trails which Louis L'Amour brought so vividly to life. With chapter titles like: "Where are the Lonseome Gods 1835 - 1864," "A Long Trail To Sitka 1817 - 1867," "Callaghen Of The Wild Geese 1867," and "Sackett Makes A Mojoave Crossing 1878" author Bert Murphy takes you by the hand and guides you safely through the roughest country, across both time and space to the world as described by Louis L'Amour. Filled with detailed maps and directions, laced with autobiographical annecdotes, personal experiences and historical facts, Bert Murphy weaves a compelling picture of the time and place in which Louis' characters lived and died. Then he brings you back to the present with photographs and geological survey maps detailing the trails and travels of Louis L'Amours most beloved characters. Step back in time and visit the lonesome places portrayed in Louis L'Amour's novels from California to Alaska.

5DETAILED AND EASY TO READ...  Jun 22, 2008
By Michael L. Shaffer "The Iceman"
Bert's done it again with this detailed account of tracking L'Amour and his characters across the northwest from California to Alaska. Bert has been there and done that and he makes the geography and time of the novels come into focus with his insight and knowledge of the locations and history of the areas.

1Save your money!  Apr 07, 2007
By B. Caldon
Don't wast your money on this book. I couldn't make it past the second chapter, the disjointed irrelevant writing is horrible. Every other paragraph is about some different subject, and most have nothing to do with Trailing Louis L'Amour. There are many misspelled words, and some locations are completely mis named. The author calls the San Jacinto Mountians the "San Joquain" Mountians, and Panamint Valley "Panama Valley." He comments on L'Amour's detailed research, yet it is obvious he didn't spend much time on research himself.
