Produktbeschreibung
The wolf hunters: A story of the buffalo plains follows a group of former soldiers who turn to frontier life in search of new purpose and profit. Their venture leads them into the rugged buffalo plains of Kansas, where the pursuit of wolves and pelts quickly reveals the harsh demands of survival. United by shared experience but facing uncertain futures, they channel their military discipline into a plan that hinges on resourcefulness, preparation, and endurance. The early sections focus on their decision to head west, driven not only by necessity but also by a desire for independence and reward. In outlining their approach, including specific supplies and strategies, they demonstrate the level of commitment required to survive winter in an unforgiving terrain. The land itself emerges as both adversary and opportunity, filled with vast beauty but fraught with challenges from unpredictable weather to possible conflict with others who roam or claim the plains. Their bond is tested not just by external threats but also by the internal tensions that arise in such isolating conditions. The novel explores the reality of frontier existence where ambition, loyalty, and danger are tightly interwoven.
Autorenporträt
Robert Morris Peck remains an obscure figure in literary history, known primarily as the author of The Wolf Hunters: A Story of the Buffalo in the Plains. His writing suggests familiarity with frontier life and the customs, struggles, and environment during a period of significant change. It is likely that Peck had some personal or second hand knowledge of the regions and events he depicted, possibly through military service, settlement experience, or oral histories common at the time. The tone and structure of his work imply a reflective outlook on the past, suggesting that he may have been interested in preserving a particular vision of American life. Though not widely recognized today, Peck s contribution remains part of a body of early 20th-century literature that captured the ethos of rugged independence, endurance, and transformation. His continued anonymity underscores how many early writers contributed singular works before fading from public and literary record.
