Summary

"Many years ago -- in 1879 -- a New Hampshire man named Daniel Clement decided to set down his experiences on the top of Mt. Moosilauke, one of the few high White Mountain peaks with a summit house. With him was his older brother, James, the original builder of the Prospect House. Together they explored the wildlife, forests, and geology of the mountain, observed a full year of seasons and storms, 'washed the delf' and debated all of life's intricacies -- from the challenges of life above treeline to death and the hereafter"--Book jacket
