Jack Flint: Mountain Man: A Frontier Mountain Man Novel
This is the second book in a brand new high-octane Mountain Man series from William H. Joiner, Jr. Are you ready for Jack Flint: Mountain Man: Book Two?
Jack’s parents were killed in an Apache raid when he was an infant. Jack was raised as an Apache until his village was destroyed by a rival tribe. Jack was prepared to go to war to avenge his Apache kin. An appearance by the Great Spirit convinced him to take another path. Jack went west and met mountain man and trapper Kit Bridger, who became his best friend. Eventually Jack became chief of the Shoshone in the Wind River Mountains in Wyoming.
Jack defended the weak and oppressed. He cared nothing about the white man’s law. All that mattered to Jack was the justice that could only be found in the mountains.

About the author
William H. Joiner Jr.
174 books21 followersFt. Knox, Kentucky, is my birthplace. It's also the home of the U.S. Gold Reserves, so it's a crying shame that I left there without any.
Other than summer jobs as a teenager, I have always been in business for myself. I have owned businesses that included: residential and commercial construction; brokering and trading commodities; owning and operating multiple insurance agencies; horse breeding, syndicating, training and racing; dog breeding and field trialing; owning and operating multiple gyms; owning and operating oil wells; brokering, researching title and consulting (regarding the buying and selling of oil and gas properties); as well as brokering and facilitating international fuel purchases.
I have traveled extensively outside the continental United States including Switzerland, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Belize, Caribbean Islands, Alaska and Hawaii.
I am happily married with four adult children, each successful in their own right.
My wife and I served in the ministry by founding, building and operating a children's home.
I authored my first book, American Entrepreneur: An Autobiography, at the urging of family and friends. My second book is, Life Begins at Sunrise: An Inspiring Story of Love, God, Bird Dogs, Walking Horses and Field Trials. I have just completed my third book, The Legend of Jake Jackson: The Last of the Great Gunfighters and Comanche Warriors.
While I had written numerous sports articles for local newspapers, I didn't think I had the patience to write a book. I found that the more I wrote, the more I like it.

I have learned early on to follow anything Mr. Joiner realeases, and I have never been disappointed in any of his outstanding descriptive stories relating to the old American West! This one is especially endearing, as Jack and his sidekick Kit, do their very best to protect themselves and those they are responsible for! They seem to do a pretty good job, too!
Certainly five stars worthy, as the two compadres ride the trail hard searching for those responsible for their wrong doings, pulling no punches in their ongoing efforts to end the ongoing hardships created by the bad guys devilment! Jack elevated to Chief of his group of Indians, is dedicated to maintaining peace and tranquility within his group and goes above and beyond in his efforts to bring justice to those responsible for their wrong doings!
Mr. Joiner is very descriptive in his successful selections of outstanding storylines from beginning to end in this compassionately motivated story of unending exciting adventures! Too, his compassionate selections of characters were perfectly selected for their commanding assignments throughout this polarizing series of unending exciting, and definitely heartwarming, achievements! Definitely maintains anyone's undivided attention throughout this outstanding western series of unending exciting adventures!
Most certainly recommend this five star sensationally motivated story to everyone, but you western addicted enthusiasts will definitely enjoy following Jack and Kit, as they continuously fulfill their objective of bringing justice to those responsible for their ongoing misdeeds! And yes you non-western enthusiasts will find yourselves completely engrossed within the first few pages of following these two compassionately motivated men in their ongoing efforts to end the wrongful misdeeds of this trying to kill their families and friends!!!😃

Didn’t like it much!!
Thought I was getting a full length story about a mountain man and all I ended up with was a short story about a white man chief of an Indian tribe. He was a good type but the story was some short of content and believe ability!!!!

This was book 2 of 2. Basically a continuation of book 1. Lots of action, more Indian fights, and yet one more giant grizzly bear to slay. If you like westerns or stories about mountain men, you'll like this series. I highly recommend it.

Well written absorbing story.
I enjoyed this book. The story was great. The editing had been done and not many mistakes were made in the word misspellings, not counting necessary slang.

Lots of action
Nonstop excitement , with raw humor. Some repetition but good old escapism to while away the hours. That’s all folks!

Keep your hat on!!
If you love to read Indian lore, this book is for you. Jack, mountain man extraordinaire, manages to keep his scalp on between fighting Indians and huge grizzlies. It gets down too close to call on occasion.
