Additional Details ------------------------------ Product description: In this vivid biography of California's greatest mountian man, Dillon recounts the rugged life of John Adams, nicknamed Grizzly after the bruin with whom he tangled and whom he tamed - a man whose daring exploits put him in a class with Daniel Boone and Wild Bill Hickok. This story is full of the adventure and color of the Old West - the cruel virgin land, vast, wooded and mountainous, untouched save by elusive Indians and wild beast; and Grizzely himself, a protype of the men who choose to take on this wilderness.
