Description
Tenting
To-Night is the lively account of a 1916 camping trip
through Montana’s Glacier National Park and Washington’s
North Cascades. Best-selling author Mary Roberts Rinehart
made the trip with her husband and three sons, and a
contingent of colorful horse wranglers, camp cooks, and
wilderness guides.
The Glacier journey included the first
known float trip down the North Fork of the Flathead
River, and the Cascade trip featured a precarious horseback
crossing of Cascade Pass. Rinehart had a friendly, unpretentious,
and humorous style that made her one of America’s
most popular writers. Her story-telling talent makes
Tenting To-Night a treasure of good reading.
