The Russian River (Rivers West, No 5)

**Rivers West** Native Americans, hunters and trappers, pioneer families - all who braved the emerging American West drew their very lives and fortunes from the great rivers. From frontier to the dawn of the twentieth century, here, in all their violence and beauty, are the Rivers West. **The Russian River** Along the harsh north California coast the otter swam, enough to fill the Russians, trading ships with valuable pets. So there they raised an outpost. But inland lay another land, a river wilderness where game and grizzly thrived, into the wild land, stripped of his rank for marrying an Indian girl, Lieutenant Anton Rostov is cast. He is a man without a country, but still he is a man. He can hunt, trap, and conquer. And he discovers a power greater than his allegiance to a faraway Czar - the lure of a new world and the sweeping current of the Russian River.
