Resumen del Editor
James Capen Adams roamed the Sierra Nevada when California was wild. He slept on the ground, ate what he could kill, mended his own wounds, and made friends with the Native Americans he encountered. Adams captured animals in elaborate traps he built by hand and delivered his prey to zoos, museums, and certain famous exhibitions.
Many of his stories became the inspiration for a popular TV show in the 1980s, featuring a mountain man and his pet bear. This is the true story behind the legend, as told by Adams to respected California historian Theodore Hittell.

Historia
In 1898, the British were building a railway line between Mombasa in Kenya and Uganda. At the Tsavo River in Kenya where a bridge needed to be built, the project was suddenly interrupted by two man-eating lions that targeted the camps of the workers. Over a period of nine months, the lions killed scores of people. These lions were deliberately hunting people, preferring humans over any other prey, and they seemed to have supernatural abilities in evading all attempts to stop them. Colonel J.H. Patterson, the chief engineer in charge of the project, finally managed to eliminate them.

Historia
Thoreau gives an account of three canoe and hiking journeys - by himself and with others - through the mostly uninhabited forests of Maine in the 1850s. Identifying birds, trees and plants by their botanical as well as their common names, he also records the Indian names of lakes, rivers and plants. He investigates the connections between waterways and trails, and provides detail on camping, fishing and hunting in the woods, using whatever is at hand. Extolling the beauty of the wilds that he encounters, Thorough’s narrative is also imbued with elements of his philosophy.

And no other president wrote more about nature and his explorations of it than T.

What a amazing story
I was amazed listening to this story. The adventure and wildlife that this man encountered was incredible.
Is is difficult to imagine the California he existed in. I cannot imagine seeing a guy walking down the street with a couple of pet grizzly bears. Living off the land, and training bears to go "fetch" and fight for him. And at the same time, a man of character.
There is some graphic descriptions of hunting that may not be for everyone, and the reading of the table of contents for each chapter is a bit distracting, but it is an adventure worth listening to.
It is similar to another book I read, Two Years Before the Mast which also describes a historical California that is difficult to recognize.
Thank you Jim Seybert for bringing this story to life!
