DH cleaned off his bookshelves and I'm sending this one off to nimrodiel.

From the Publisher
Those who followed the treacherous, sidewinding course of the Snake were carried to some of the most beautiful country on earth: the untouched Pacific Northwest. Flare O'Flaherty--son of Ireland, mountain trapper, and gambler--agrees to lead a group of missionaries downriver to the remote headquarters of the mighty Hudson's Bay Company. Along the way he faces the greatest challenges of a wandering man's lifetime in the form of Margaret Jewell, a beautiful, strong-willed teacher of Indian children, and a young Shoshone, Sima, seeking the white father he never knew. Together they would find their destiny along the mighty river that bore the shape of a serpent and held the promise of home.

This made it here yesterday

This has been hiding among my pc books for entirely too long. I just finished reading it and really enjoyed the book. It has been quite some time since I read the first two books in this series, and hadn't read the five between. But I remembered very well why I had liked this author as a teen.

I thought he end of the story a bit hokey and rushed, but it didn't detract from the main plot.

Left on a table in the cafeteria (lower level of the student union bldng)

I found this book at the cafeteria at Northeastern Illinois University! Have not had a chance to read it unfortunately (kind of forgot about it :/) so I would now like to pass it on to someone else.

Left it on a table at Michaelangelo's Coffee Shop.
