Ever an observant reporter, an acute portraitist who brought the essay to high art, Edward Hoagland (1932 - ) recaptures the mood and feel of the old era of homesteading and gold strikes --- that is, \"an era of walking\" when the world belonged to fur-trappers, mountainmen, and surveyor\/explorers. Travelling usually by float plane, the author covered much ground and conversed with many an octogenarian with vivid memories of the past. A spontaneous memoir, an oral history, and an excursion into a world past.
