It is all in this book! Based on the Gold Rush in the 1800's the author weaves history in with an exciting story
FROM THE BOOK:
"The moment they had passed out of sight of the camp a powerful savage leaped on Frank from behind, and, grasping him round the throat with both arms, endeavored to throw him, while another Indian wrenched the rifle out of his hand.
At the same moment Joe Graddy was similarly seized. The savages had, however, underrated the strength of their antagonists.
Frank stooped violently forward, almost to the ground, and hurled the Indian completely over his head.
At the same time he drew a revolver from his belt, fired at and wounded the other Indian, who dropped the rifle, and doubled like a hare into the bushes.
The others fled right and left, as Frank sprang forward and recovered his weapon—all save the one whose unhappy lot it had been to assault Joe Graddy, and who was undergoing rapid strangulation, when Frank ran to his rescue."
