“You are gonna be on your own out there and ain’t no-one gonna know if you get into trouble. Take nothing for granted, and don’t ever forget that you’re a tenderfoot, and you know nothing.”
Guy Grieve, Call of the American Wild: A Tenderfoot's Escape to Alaska

“mine was ‘tenderfoot’. Out of curiosity I looked it up: ‘A newly arrived immigrant . . . unused to the hardships of pioneer life; a greenhorn. More widely, a raw inexperienced person.’ I was the living embodiment of the term.”
Guy Grieve, Call of the American Wild: A Tenderfoot's Escape to Alaska
