Sylvan Ambrose Hart was born in the Oklahoma Territory in 1906. In the 1930's, while still a young man, he walked into the Rocky Mountains and designed a unique life for himself in the wilds - hunting, fishing, trapping, panning gold, crafting his own tools, weapons, shelter, and clothes. For almost fifty years he lived the life of a reclusive mountain man --eventually gaining national fame as Buckskin Bill, Last of the Mountain Men. In 1973 another young man, studying philosophy in a private college back east, found that he could no longer abide being shackled by the conventional wisdoms of our culture. To the dismay of all who knew and loved him, he dropped out of college and headed for the mountains. He caught a train cross-country to Montana, then hopped a bus southbound skirting the Rocky Mountains. At one point he simply stepped off the bus and walked into the mountains with only a backpack, machete, and knife (no food or gun) determined to learn what the mountains offered to teach --or die trying. After a few months of eating rattlesnakes, ants and field mice, this struggling newcomer to the mountains (the author) discovered the now old and grizzled mountain man living not only successfully but quite flamboyantly in the depths of the Rocky Mountain wilderness on the River of No Return. Buckskin was an extraordinary man. Anyone who ever met him walked away with stories and memories to be cherished for a lifetime. Here are my favorite memories of the Last of the Mountain Men.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →When you hear the term "mountain man" what comes to mind? Dan Haggerty as Grizzly Adams? Robert Redford as Jeremiah Johnson? Self-sufficient men living off the land filling those most basic needs of shelter, warmth and food. Yes, the food. That was the seed for this book and now this expanded third edition. I wanted to track down basic foods, country and frontier staples. Rustic grub and country recipes in all their satisfying simplicity like Hard Tack, Rhubarb Cake, Sour Dough and Corn Pone. That is what is presented here: older recipes, some with new twists, that go as far back as 150 years. This edition adds in foraged foods and home made jerky recipes. These meals were made by mountain men, homesteaders and settlers, country folk and even weekend warriors. Food is the connecting thread that binds cultures, generations, family and friends. For some it's gastronomic anthropology. I like to think of it simply as tradition. Passing the knowledge, the warmth and the feast on to whoever joins us at the table. Sharing a meal is after all, one of the best parts of life.
