Ride the River (1983)
“Created by master storyteller Louis L'Amour, the Sackett saga brings to life the spirit and adventures of generations of pioneers. Fiercely independent and determined to face any and all challenges, they discovered their destiny in settling a great and wild land.
Each Sackett novel is a complete, exciting historical adventure. Read as a group, they tell the epic tale of a country unlike any the world has ever known. And no one writes more powerfully about the frontier than Louis L'Amour, who ha...s walked and ridden down the same trails as the Sackett family he has immortalized. The Sackett novels represent L'Amour at his very best, a high point in a truly legendary career.

Lamour makes many chronological mistakes. All the fathers of you 16-18 year old girls seem to be old men. Just about Dorian Chantry, the "nephew" of 86 tear old Mr. Chantry seems to be not more than about 25 at most, likely 4-5 years younger.Perhaps a grand-nephew or even great-grandnephew, but most certainly NOT a mephew.
