The Miraculous Misadventures of Mordecai Lincoln: Book 1: Mordecai's Conversion

Description: The Miraculous Misadventures of Mordecai Lincoln by Richard F. Dee The novel is a slightly irriverent, fast-paced, fun adventure set in the 1830s. It features a host of genuine characters including: missionaries, mountain men, southern belles, ladies of the night, aborigional beauties, runaway slaves, traveling troubadours, any number of scalawags, and several Indian Nations. Based on actual events and several real persons of that era, it contains mortifying, hair-bredth escapes and well-deserved "comeuppances" throughout. The story follows young Mordecai Lincoln (prudish Baptist parson and greenhorn pilgrim) as he travels west - intent only on revenge. He is chasing after the man who so suddenly squashed young Lincolns rising hopes for evangelical (and worldly) Glory. None other than the Right Reverend Jason Lee, Methodist Missionary to the Flathead and Nez Perce Indians. Along the way, our "hero" awakens to the Wondrous West and learns some most valuable lessons. Among these: how to beak a Comanche mule, drop "buffaler" in their tracks, and purchase a devoted wife. Will Mordecai also survive corrupt officials, border thugs, and fur trade rivalries to finally bring down The Lords (and Mordecai Lincolns) "Justice" upon Jason Lee? Read and ye shall see. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Richard has been in love with the American West and its genuine, Larger than Life historical characters since he could first straddle a horse. Over the years he has visited or lived in most of the western settings described in his writings. In all these locals he was drawn to the "doers" (often true eccentrics) who still practiced frontier skills; i.e. cowboys, outfitters, guides, packers, sheep herders and such. He has worked cattle, guided hunters, packed mules, herded and shorn sheep for a living. He currently lives"off grid" in a log cabin on a meadow set among tall red fir. He grows, hunts or gathers much of his food. It is a good life. Details ISBN1502932687 Author Richard F.
