Angus McDonald is contracted to British masters to trade for fur. But the world he discovers is beyond even a Highlander's wildest imaginings: raging rivers, buffalo hunts, and the powerful daughter of an ancient and magnificent people. In Catherine Baptiste, kin to Nez Perce chiefs, Angus recognizes a kindred spirit. The Rocky Mountain West in which they meet will soon be torn apart by competing claims: between British fur traders, American settlers, and the Native peoples who have lived for millennia in the valleys and plateaus of the Shining Mountains' western slopes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this epic family saga, the real history of the American West is revealed in all its terror, beauty, and complexity. The Shining Mountains brilliantly limns a world now long forgotten: of blended cultures seeking allies, trading furs for guns and steel, and a way of life in collision with westward colonial expansion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"High Road Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48701883777259,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":36.53,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780826368027-1.jpg?v=1781643077","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9780826368027","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
