Frederick Loring was a popular writer from a prominent Boston family. He and seven others were on a stage that was ambushed by Indians 8 miles west of Wickenburg, Arizona Territory, on November 5, 1871. Loring and four fellow travelers, along with the driver, were killed almost immediately. The awful news led to an outpouring of cries to exterminate all Indians in the Territory, and to perpetuation of a long-running frontier bloodbath that reverberated across the nation. But were the attackers really Apaches? A young reporter from Washington travels many miles to investigate the real story and uncover some shocking truths . .

Book Description
...Here and now, at the end of western history, we came to this indolent, irrational, utopian, unrealistic Westerner, full of arrogance and of ignorance, believing itself as unique in history and irreplaceable in the world of changing, of becoming and of challenging... ...This sad finality is the fulfillment of “welfare and political correctness”, here, at the end of Western times, where the free world was trumpeted, the world of well-being existing only in the empty and stupid imaginations of its leaders, of its entire populations naive and unrealistic, to the cruel and harsh realities of the world... ...Here, at the end of the historical road, are the great democratic conquests of its revolutions of the last centuries (mentioning here the French Revolution - 1789, the American Revolution - 1776, the Russian Revolution - 1917), for freedom, for justice, for fraternity, which they were extremely obsessed with the propaganda and historical thinking of the West... ...Here, in generalized chaos, are present now, in the historical hic et nunc, the abuses of his liberties, the anarchies from the abstract concept of freedom, his embarrassing exaggerations from the structures of science and consciousness... ...Here and now, the West has revealed itself in all its hidden evils of capitalist ideologies, propaganda and manipulations, in all its shocking truths, beautified by trumpets and rock-and-roll music, by movies full of carrots and sick imaginations, by creating his own phobias and obsessions, within fears and anxieties, beyond of any classic psychoanalytic analysis, in its minimal rationality... Here and now is an end of accumulated in centuries of blindness, decades of deafness, years of empty readings, and stupid applauding of own weaknesses and fragilities and vulnerabilities ... ...Here and now... ...Here and now is the END OF THE WESTER – LANDS, by mocking the real values of the world, some created by Westerner, but viewed and treated with indifference, with rejection and oblivion, including here the supposed providential protection of his destiny, synthesized in God Bless America, and America under the Providence of History!... ...Here and now, it is the crash of Western, of banking, of financial, of moral (actually immoral), of artistic crashes, synthesizing a huge constant of imbecility, acting in all directions of the fissions of society... ...And this is what a Nonapocalyptologist, a Nonarmaghedo-nologist, a Nondezastrologist, but who sees and lives on live, these immense Western unrealities and utopies, must having the real courage to write and to describe these catastrophic Western collapses, which, in every day are more than visible... ... We present to you a triad of books with this dramatic topic of gloomy destiny, entitled The End of the Westerner, Finishing of America and The German Disaster... The Last Occidentolog

Book Description
A pair of action-packed tall tales from Western master Frank Bonham The first story, Trouble in Temescal, is set in Los Angeles in the days following the Mexican-American War, and tells the tale of two entrepreneurial mustangers, Hank Ashwood and Red Wolfe, who have driven a herd of horses from New Mexico to California for resale. But their efforts to sell the animals to one of the Mexican hacendados, Dona Julia de la Torre, owner of Rancho Temescal, are hampered by a scabrous group of squatters led by Owen Pike, bent on claiming rights to her land, and who have the racially biased ownership laws at their backs. The second story, King of the Defiances, is the story of Big Jim Jackson, who intends to make a fortune by logging off the best railroad-tie timber in Arizona, and his clash with former manhunter Troy Cameron, the leader of a group of small cattle ranchers who stand in Jackson's way. Jackson now holds notes on the ranchers' land and plans to foreclose if the notes aren't met on time. And he has a hired crew of gun hands ready to use force against anyone who resists.
