About this audiobook
They called him . . . Preacher.
He came west to the Rockies as a young runaway and grew into a legend among the already legendary frontier mountain men. They called him Preacher-a name that would become a monument to all who sought adventure in the savage wilderness of America's untamed west. The only man with the skills to lead a wagon train on the last leg of the rugged Oregon trail, Preacher knows they're headed into trouble. It's hard enough for a hundred greenhorns to survive the wilds of the northwest; being pursued by thieving renegade outlaws and Indians with a thirst for gold-and blood-makes it damn near impossible. Somehow, Preacher has to get these pilgrims through safely-if he doesn't want to end up buried along the trail with the rest of them . . .

I gave this book a five rating
Applause loved it - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Preacher is a mountain man, a wanderer, trapper, and a fighter as the need arises. When he finds himself in charge of a wagon train of clueless eastern pilgrims, he must put all his cunning, knowledge, and experience into play, in order to keep himself and his charges from dying at the hands of renegade Blackfeet and murdering outlaws. I enjoyed this story, and look forward to reading another in the series.
