Description: Hush of the Land chronicles the six-decade quest of backcountry packer and outfitter Smoke Elser to protect wilderness areas not by keeping people away but by leading them deep into the wild mountains of western Montana.
Review Quotes: "Smoke Elser is a legend not only in the Bob Marshall Wilderness in Montana but throughout the Rocky Mountain West. . . . Hush of the Land will be read for years by those who want a saddle-high view of a unique and adventurous life well lived."--C. J. Box, New York Times best-selling author of Storm Watch
