Book Description
When a frontier town goes dry, the sheriff must enforce the law—and go toe to toe with deadly bootleggers—in this historical Western. It was a law Cotton Pickens never asked for and never wanted to enforce. But due to the vigilance of the Women's Temperance Society, the town of Doubtful, Wyoming, is going dry as of January 1st. And since Doubtful’s hell-raisers will never take it lying down, the new year is rung in with the promise of gunshots ringing out. While Sheriff Pickens is fighting bootleggers and vigilantes, the righteous women push through an even worse law bound to spark an outright insurrection. The world's oldest profession is the next vice to be outlawed. With all hell breaking loose and the National Guard on the way, Sheriff Pickens has enemies everywhere he turns. And for a lawman under siege, survival means fast thinking, straight shooting—and breaking a law or two himself . . .

Book Description
In mid-November 1900 a herd of sheep crossed a plowed furrow “deadline” which had separated the public ranges for cattle and sheep herds for many years. On the early morning of December 28, 1900, a determined group of cattlemen led by a future Wyoming Governor and U.S. Senator destroyed a band of 2113 head of sheep which had “invaded” their range. The story was cloaked by a “conspiracy of silence” for nearly 75 years—finally coming to light 40 years after the Senator’s death. Yet some of the facts and motivations remained shrouded in mystery. This is the full story told for the first time.
