TREASURE RIVER a historical, folkloric, novel that records the story of a civilization which we have all but forgotten; the era of the, fur trapping, whisky brewing, treasure-seeking river people; found in the wild and wooly Red River Valley, during the early nineteenth century.
Time was all a country boy had … a river all he needed. A summer-day swim, tending a fishing pole or floating lazily downstream in a skiff washed away a boy’s day, like rain drops on newly fallen snow. “Out behind the barn” and “barefoot in the summertime” were terms boys understood.
