[QUOTE="Bestoutwest, post: 1353993, member: 19397"] Ok, this is stretching, but I don't care. If you want to read about the 'real wild west' try The Frontiersman by Allen Eckert. He tells the story of Simon Kenton. This was back when the Ohio River Valley was considered 'The West.' The guys survived something like 9 gauntlets, should have died a couple of dozen times, and had the Indians scared b/c they thought he couldn't be killed and was favored by God. At one point he was one of the largest land owners in the new world (pre-America). I'll say this, the Indians were tough as nails. Sometimes they're portrayed as an easy opponent for the Americans, but they were tough as nails. By the way, this is historical fiction. The author poured through hundreds of documents to come up with this book, and the others in the series. It's a great read. [/QUOTE]
