It was just a week of travel to reach where Horse Creek met the upper Green River, the site of this year's Rendezvous. The summer of 1835 had already been full of surprises for "Grizzly Killer" Zach Connors, along with his friends and family. Their departure for Rendezvous was delayed by a prolonged summer storm and the arrival of a man they call Scarecrow: a confused Irish prospector who believed he was led there by his imaginary friends... the wee little people. Ancient enemies and a devastating wildfire along the way make their journey a dangerous and deadly adventure. "Warenski does a fabulous job of recreating the life, danger, beauty, and heroism of the Western mountain man." -advanced reader
