Rugged Men and women dared to brave the weather, mountain soil, and the isolation to settle the magnificent valley under the Tetons. Mavericks, homesteaders, trappers, merchants, cowboys, hunters, dudes, and Easterners -- it was a blend that created a vigorous, exciting community. A community with many stories to tell.There are stories that will make you laugh like the one of Joe Nethercott who came home to find his neighbors had turned his cabin logs into a church. There are stories that will make you cringe like the one of fourteen-year-old Mark Anderson who wouldn't give up and die, so was carried on a stretcher from Jackson to Victor, Idaho, by four men on foot.Nelson, Fern K. is the author of 'This Was Jackson's Hole', published 1994 under ISBN 9780931271250 and ISBN 0931271258.
