For Titus Bass, leading his family north to winter with the Crow people, the journey is a sad one. He must save an old friend from death and rescue his daughter Magpie from cutthroat traders. He will try to free a wagon train of innocents from its unscrupulous leader, and he will try to come to terms with his long–lost daughter Amanda, bound for a new home in a faraway land Bass himself will never see.But when he arrives in the land of the Crow, he finds old friends—and old ways—dying out. Determined to live out his final years in peace, Bass comes to realize that, on the changing frontier, survival is never a certain thing.

Goodreads review by Nathan on March 16, 2021

Maybe it's because I'm finally having to say goodbye to Ol' Scratch after probably well over 5000 pages, but I think this was the most moving and my favorite of the Titus Bass novels. Though the writing can be uneven, and the dialogue certainly not PC (although historically accurate in the context),......more

Goodreads review by Joe on May 05, 2024

Wow, I’m saddened that it’s the end of the road for both this character and series. I’d be happy to go back to the beginning and read it all over again, which I may in a few years.

Quotes

“[A] remarkable mountain man hero…Titus Bass is a believable, enduring character…This bloody tale of a man who values his family’s safety above all else is one of the most evocative and powerful books in the series. Bass fans will be energized by the novel but sad to see the last of the old mountain man.” Publishers Weekly

“Titus and his family…face dangers from the land, the weather, and, most of all, their fellow man…Johnston’s popularity stems from his skill in evoking the feel of the period and the fierce independence of the early explorers. Fans of Titus Bass will be glad that this latest work is out but sorry to see the series end.” Booklist
