A Time to Kill: A Nate Grisham Young Adult Adventure

Rate this book
The long anticipated Volume 3 of the Youngest Mountain Man The British Hudson Bay Company is looking for a way to increase their profits in the fur business, as American free trappers and independent mountain men are taking a larger chunk of the market throughout the Rockies. Their cut throat plan is to kill the pesky trappers and narrow the competition, so they get more of their share of the skins. They dispatch a mercenary British Army officer with the plan of using rogue Indian tribe to help them do the dirty work. Braves Fire Eyes and Eagle team up with Nate and Cotton to stop the marauders in their murderous task. Little do they know yet, but mountain men are a tough breed to catch...and even tougher to scare off or kill. Butterfield helps with the fight, and ends up in the cross-hairs of a British-led assault on his trading post! The action is crackling and non-stop in this third chapter of The Youngest Mountain Man series. Suitable for 14 and up CONTENT realistic depictions of frontier violence and death.

The final book in the trilogy. Eagle and Fire Eyes are superb warriors. In this book the English Hudson's Bay company try to kill and frighten off the free trappers. They do not succeed

Another great book on Nate Grisham. I really look forward to these books by Mr. Benton. they are page turners. Those mountain men were a tough lot. I hope to read about Nate's son in a book. I bet he turns out to be a great mountain man. Thank you W.R. Benton for a great read.

Mountain Men

Never take a Mountain Man for granted. Once he blackened his face to you. There is no place safe to hide.
