A very good western. Easy reading.Indian fights, panning for gold, Civil War, you name it and it happens in the old West. Mostly about a cattle drive with a little romance thrown in.
As usual Ralph compton has the ability to write in a way that the person reading the story feels that he is there.
Enjoyed the Charters and the description of the land. Look forward to reading more of Ralph Compton.
