"Pemmican" (1964) by Vardis Fisher
'Pemmican' by Vardis Fisher - A tremendous look at 19th century fur traders, and the perilous life of fur trappers.
Official Description:
Kill or get killed was what a fur trader could expect in the Hudson Bay territory in 1815.
Rival trading companies were engaged in a murderous feud for trading rights, and bloodthirsty Indians were scalping any white man in sight.
This was what faced David McDonald, a vigorous young trader for the Hudson's Bay Company. This and freezing blizzards and herds of stampeding buffalo that covered the horizon and trampled everything in their path.
But for David the prize was more than the fur trade. He had seen a savage, wildly beautiful white girl in the Blackfoot camp, and he was determined to have her.
All he had to do was tame her--and kill the Blackfoot chief who coveted her.
