4.0 out of 5 stars The adventures of an obscure hero., August 13, 1998
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Taking Chances (Hardcover)
I was very surprised to see that this book is now in print. I searched for years to obtain an original copy of it, which was privately published in small numbers, and apparently given to Burnham's many admirers. The book is of most value if one first reads his fascinating book "Scouting on Two Continents". Burnham was one of the most fascinating adventure characters of recent history. His adventures covered the American Old West,Africa, and Alaska during the Gold Rush. He was a very tough man, and his entire life was filled with dangerous adventures. I hope "Scouting on Two Continents" will soon be available. Burnham's life should be the subject of a major Hollywood movie.
