The decade following the California gold rush of 1849 was a time of tumult and treachery. Hundreds of thousands poured into the territory whose main settlements barely harbored a thousand people. The American government was overwhelmed at dealing with the raucous situation which it had inherited from a dispirited Mexican political machine. The men who had set this grand American experiment in motion looked to one man, John Charles Fremont, for direction. His Fremont Enterprises, is the subject of this 18th volume of the Mountain Man Series: "River Gold To Die For." Fremont was himself engulfed in the mining frenzy that drove his contemporaries to leave hearth and home, squandering their life savings, for the promise of GOLD. This massive migration would take years to settle down and in the meantime it would depend on men like John Fremont's fictional friend and Gunman, Jeremiah Warner. The land grant owned by Fremont covered more than thirty square miles along the southern stretch of the Merced River, gold country! In this story, the eighteenth volume of the Mountain Man Series, Jeremiah Warner goes from being the Boundary Rider to becoming the Gold River Gunman. He will be called on to be judge and jury for the dangerous element that is now slipping into the saloons and brothels of the California frontier. The wealth of the Fremont Enterprises can quickly become "River Gold to Die For." The Jeremiah Warner Mountain Man Series follows his adventures through the Rocky Mountain Wilderness and now into the thick of the California Gold Rush.
