Tales of our lusty and spreading

frontiers never grow old . . .

nor do the heroes of these tale*.

Back in the early days, when the Missi

described the western boundary of our expanding

tiers, a healthy race of brawling, rugged, happy

were making a name for themselves— the rim

men. With only their keelboats and poles, they I

ported enormous amounts of freight up and do*

often calm, often treacherous "Father Mississippi."

Perhaps the most fabulous of all the riTcdm

tains was the boisterous Mike Fink, whose escmpi

and exploits became legendary, winning him nV"King of the River." When (he "King of the R

challenges the "King of the Wild Fi

race from Ohio to New Orleans, just about

can happen . . . and does.

This .is our story . . . the exciting contest be-

tween Mike Fink and Davy Crockett.
