The second book in a brand new Mountain Man adventure series from D.M. Haggard! Wilder Hawk, half Apache, half Anglo, and all mountain man, can’t wait to get back to his beloved Rockies. As part of his quest to connect with his long-dead father, whose first name he bears, he travels to “the land of yellow stone,” a place of wonder and mystery. The trek from Kansas to Wyoming brings him face to face with friendly and hostile Indian tribes, bandits, and other challenges, including a confrontation at Fort Laramie and restoring two lost children to their family’s wagon train. When he finally reaches the Yellowstone region, it’s everything he imagined. At a crystal-blue lake not far from the geysers and hot springs, he gains an unusual companion—a hawk, his totem bird, injured in a fight with an eagle. A chance encounter with a fellow mountain man brings friendship and sorrow, but points Wilder toward his next adventure—a journey all the way to the Great Water, the Pacific Ocean.

D. M. Haggard, aka D. M. Horridge, was born in Texas, raised on cactus, dust, and a strong family. When I was very young, I would visit my uncle's farm in San Antonio and work side by side with my seven cousins baling hay, swimming in a round cow trough, and hunting rattlesnakes. I've hunted and fished all over the United States, and have worked like a trojan on my own ranch in Texas. I've written short stories and professional articles for a variety of marketing and professional magazines, but only recently started writing western adventure stories. I like learning about the real characters of western history and use them in a fictional way. I feel like I am preserving their memory and the heritage they left for us over time. I have been blessed with a wonderful wife of 55 years, two terrific children, and a million friends. I try to leave a message in every book that says to the reader, "we are all part of this world of ours and we need to work together to keep it from falling apart." My family is the most important part of my life. I have also been blessed with four fabulous grandchildren and two spouses of our children who have brought a wonderful depth to our family and extended family. One of my favorite subjects is the Texas Rangers, a group of tough, honorable, and law-abiding men and women. Only recently I have begun a series of children's books named "The Amazing Adventures of Two Boys." They represent many of the stories my father told to my brother and me as children. Always exciting, but not frightening, they give me great pleasure to write and publish on Amazon under my father's name, Don Horridge, and my name D. M. Horridge. All of the proceeds from these children's books are donated to children's ministries throughout the world. Thanks for listening.
