Terry Grosz returns to the unexplored American West in his ninth Mountain Man novel, "Elliott "Bear Scat" Sutta, Mountain Man." Sixteen-year-old Elliott Sutta is sent out by his father to kill a deer for future family meals. Killing the biggest deer in his life, Elliott’s joy is short-lived when he is swooped down upon by a tornado, which ‘whirls away’ his deer and leaves him battered and bruised without family or farm, all destroyed by the airborne killer. Elliott finds himself alone and soon hunted by old friends who realize that he has discovered a hoard of Spanish silver dollars hidden in his father’s "Posthole Bank"! Thus begins Elliott’s adventures as a man and fur trapper in the wilderness, attempting to find his fur trapper brother Jacob. As a ‘greenhorn’, he finds himself betrayed by trappers posing as friends who soon abandon him on the prairie! There he faces starvation and then a chance meeting with a mentor occurs. In the years that followed, "Bear Scat" faces capture by the deadly Sioux, becomes a Mountain Man in the territory of the deadly Blackfeet, faces grizzly bear attacks, ‘moose madness’, deadly Indian battles, experiences heartaches in opportunities lost trying to find his elusive brother, is engaged in a deadly fight with white trappers resulting in a sad loss, all ending in an unexpected surprise! Elliott "Bear Scat" Sutta, Mountain Man is an epic story of the life and times of a Mountain Man who rises from the ashes and tries to find his brother in an unexplored West that was young, dangerous and yet beautiful beyond compare, told only as a man can tell it who "was there"…
