Real adventure writing from the early to mid 1800s! Stories of early Louisiana, Texas, Mexico, and South America, some of which will have you believing it's non-fiction. A most interesting read not only for the stories, but also for the grammar and style of the time. I don't think I've ever read a book which relied so upon semi-colons in all my life!
