This is the fourth book in a brand new high-octane Mountain Man series from William H. Joiner, Jr. Are you ready for Jack Mountain Book Four?
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.
Ft. 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.
Jack's adventures were truly exciting in this book 4. Bill's on his toes and tells the story of a deadly 5 member gang of bears. I consider this writing to be one of his best!
I enjoy action westerns but not horror books. This series became more and more unbelievable and graphically violent with each book until this book at the beginning of second chapter I shut it down.
