THE BEARS OF BLUE RIVER (Illustrated)

A story of adventure in Indiana, in the early 1820's, when that state was a frontier wilderness and the woods were infested with bears, catamounts, and other wild animals. The little hero, Baker Brent, lived on the east bank of the Big Blue River; he began shooting bears with his father's gun when only thirteen. The book includes a most remarkable series of bear stories, which old or young may enjoy.
