With Axe and Rifle is a novel written by W.H.G. Kingston. The book is set in the early 19th century and tells the story of a group of young men who set out to explore the wilderness of North America. The main character, Harry Clifford, is a young Englishman who dreams of adventure and decides to join an expedition to the Rocky Mountains. Along the way, Harry and his companions encounter many dangers, including hostile Native American tribes, wild animals, and treacherous terrain. They also experience the beauty and wonder of the untamed wilderness, and Harry learns valuable lessons about courage, perseverance, and friendship. With Axe and Rifle is a thrilling adventure story that captures the spirit of exploration and discovery that characterized the early years of America’s westward expansion.They had been feeding on the body of Dio’s horse, utterly indifferent to the venom with which the flesh was impregnated. We kept to windward of it, and directly we had passed the foul birds flew back to their banquet. This showed us that the guide had led us aright, and that we could trust him. Losing patience, I entreated the sergeant to move on faster, reminding him that even should our friends not be attacked by the Indians, they were certainly suffering from want of water. He inquired how far off I calculated we should find the train.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
