Summary: An endearing llook at an historic character
Comment: Bridger is a larger than life character. The author portrays Bridger as a character who was unimpressed with developed society. His treasure was the mountains and the mystery of an undeveoped land and people. His humility and lack of concern for unbelievers of the wonder of the mountains aligns him with someone who has a tremendous fishing hole but doesnt want anyone to fish it dry.

Rating: 4
Summary: It's the best book ever
Comment: This book is awesome !!!!!!!

Rating: 1
Summary: Embarrassingly Inept Writing
Comment: Although Vestal establishes his credibility as a researcher, it is not enough to research well; one must also be a writer, and Vestal's embarrassing attempts to mimic Bridger's speech is a travesty. From inane, trite cliches to ungrammatical and unmusical diction, it is clear that Vestal needed a much stronger editor. Recommended only for those who can ignore the non-standard grammar and abyssmal writing or who are interested only in the research.
