He loves the outdoors and relishes Mother Nature. He speaks several languages, and he longs for travel and adventure. At twenty-six, Yeremey jumps at the opportunity to go to Liverpool, England, to study mining. It’s not necessarily the mining that interests him. It’s the opportunity to see new things and meet new people.
Later, he sails for the “New World,” arriving in Halifax in 1804 and from there begins a journey that takes him through Cape Breton, Quebec City, Montreal, and the woodlands, Great Lakes, and Great Plains. Along the way, he meets sailors and trappers, innkeepers and chiefs, settlers and shamans. As he works his way into the wilder West, he encounters First Nations tribes, Huron, Ojibwa, Cree, Blackfoot, and Lakota—some more welcoming than others.показать меньше
