B.M. (Bertha Muzzy) Bower was the first woman to make a living writing Westerns, knocking out well over a dozen. This 1914 outing tackles the clash between the original cattlemen and the encroaching sheep ranchers. Both groups vying for the same grazing land historically was the cause of a lot of tension and bloodshed similar to the range wars between cowboys and farmers. Other new volumes in the series are William R. Cox's The Sixth Horseman (ISBN 0-7540-8155-9), John Hunter's Badlands Buccaneer (ISBN 0-7540-8154-0), and Barry Cord's Gun Junction (ISBN 0-7540-8156-7). Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.
