Publisher's Synopsis
The first book in the exciting WILDERNESS series is back in print! Young Nathaniel King works as an accountant in New York City. It's a dull job, and his employer is a harsh taskmaster. So when Nate's uncle, who disappeared into the vast expanse beyond the Mississippi River years ago, writes him and offers to share 'the greatest treasure in the world', Nate leaps at the chance. He thinks the treasure is gold or silver. Perhaps a lost Spanish mine. But his uncle has found something more valuable than either, as Nate will learn if he survives the many perils and challenges he encounters. WILDERNESS is an epic struggle for survival in America's untamed frontier.
