What to expect
Carry the Wind is a gripping historical saga set in the Old West during a time when the horizon never ended and a nation was being born.
Young Josiah Paddock, on the run from his past in St. Louis in 1831, didn’t have much hope of survival. Winter was coming to the Rocky Mountains, and if the cold cutting through his city clothes didn’t kill him, grizzlies or Indians would. Then his luck turned. He stumbled across the trail of Ol’ Scratch, a solitary mountain man eager enough for company to take the brash youngster under his wing.
Pure chance brought Paddock to the old trapper’s camp, but it was skill with a gun and a knife that kept them both alive as they rode deep into the majestic land of Blackfeet and Crow Indians, bible-spouting pioneers, and sensual women where only the best and bravest survived—and only the luckiest rode back again.

Critics Review
“Brutal violence, enduring love, and a passion for the mountains…a book worth reading.”
“Slick with survival–and–gore heroics and thick with Northwest wilderness period detail (1820-40), this gutsy adventure–entertainment is also larded with just the right amounts of frontier sentiment.”
