Synopsis: Independent young wilderness trapper, Pete Gant, met the challenge of a monstrous bull moose with courage and skill-after he let it chase him up a tree and keep him there all night! He was not so sure of his tactics when it came to dealing with Hailey Zulski, tiny and teasing, who could nevertheless work steadfastly beside her invalid father, a refugee from Poland, on their rugged sheep ranch. This was especially the case when Hailey said she would never speak to Pete again if he killed the furious moose in a spirit of hatred and revenge, when he knew perfectly well that she helped her father stock their thin larder with game to tide them over the winter. Then there was the question of books. Pete could read all right, but he needed to know what he was reading, the way the Zulskis did. This outdoor adventure story has a most unusual slant, but, with Jim Kjelgaard as the author, the reader is assured of stirring action and a true feel of the wilderness that is echoed in Mort Kunstler's fine illustrations.
