He could not walk, and in the soft snow, even if we could make rude snowshoes, it would be impossible to carry him.... To continue on that route, with so meagre a supply of food and the game uncertain, involved almost certain starvation for the entire party or the eventual abandonment of Colgate to save our own lives...."</p><p>Himmelwright describes the moment they eventually abandoned Colgate alone and sick on the bank of the Clearwater River:</p><p>"We made him as comfortable as we could, left him what necessaries we thought he might require in the brief period he had yet to live, and, shouldering our packs, we started sadly down the river. Although Colgates head was turned toward us, he made no motion or outcry as he saw us disappear, one by one, around the bend...."</p><p>?</p><p>Besides being a spell-binding narration of the trials and dangers of camp life in a wild country, the book contains an intriguing story centered around an old prospector they encountered living in a cabin in the Bitterroot Mountains who had been searching for a rich gold find that a starving Indian had failed to lead him to.</p><p>About the author:</p><p>Abraham Lincoln Artman Himmelwright (1865 -1936), a civil engineer, author, builder, adventurer, and marksman was the general manager of The Roebling Construction Company.</p>...9781088193389_Bookcroplibro_electonico_e5e582ab-9cf9-3ea7-9395-a564e0d3c6d8_9781088193389;9781088193389_9781088193389Abraham LincolnInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/ingram30-epub-4a812505-adda-42f9-ae83-188b3572bbef.epub2023-06-30T00:00:00+00:00Bookcrop
