About This Novel

This book is a masterpiece by Washington Irving, the father of American literature, telling the story of the business adventures of fur tycoon Astor's expedition across the Rocky Mountains. The book explores in detail the establishment and development of the early fur trade in the United States, including the battle between Britain and France for the fur trade in the American wilderness. The whole book revolves around the main line of fur trade, describing the extremely difficult and great undertakings undertaken by each of the heroes. The work tells the story of early American western colonization and wilderness exploration experiences in the fur trade, and recreates life in the primitive wilderness of the American West, including various thrilling legends about encounters with Indians and astonishing scenes of wilderness survival. This book can also be called the American version of the story of "Going to the West for Buddhist Scriptures".

This book has the qualities to be adapted into a movie and become a "blockbuster".
