Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Yakima Henry has been dealt more than his share of trouble—even for a half-white, half- Indian in the west. Now he’s running a small Arizona horse ranch with his longtime love, Faith, and thinks he may have finally found his share of peace and prosperity. But his violent past is about to come calling. Bill Thornton still carries the wound from where Faith—once his most valuable “entertainer”—shot him just before being carried away by that low-down breed Yakima. And the roadhouse proprietor, suffering from a bad case of blood poisoning, still carries a heart full of hatred for the both of them. That’s why he’s sent a gang of sadistic bounty-hunters to ventilate Yakima and bring Faith back to him. And that’s why Yakima’s long-awaited peace will have to come at the end of a long, hard killing trail.

The Tragic Days of Billy the Kid
Author: Frazier Hunt
Publisher: Sunstone Press
ISBN: 0865347174
Category : Frontier and pioneer life
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
Since a July night in 1881 when he was shot down at the age of 21, Billy the Kid has been a victim of the myths that surrounded and captured him. This vivid interpretation of the Kid's life and character will come as an exciting revelation to readers who may have been familiar only with the earlier fictionalized versions. For here is real, moving tragedy painted in broad brush strokes with the vivid hues of the stark American Southwestern landscape. Never before has there been brought into true focus the Lincoln County War, which broke out in 1878 in the then Territory of New Mexico, and which furnished the background and the period for the adventures of this extraordinary boy. The literature concerning both the desperate cattle war and the singular young outlaw have necessarily been constructed around a thin framework of fact with its papier maché façade of myth and legend. So persistent have been these legends that the true character of the Kid seemed almost beyond reach. Indeed, the Western poet, Arthur Chapman, once wrote that "Billy the Kid must remain wholly the most unaccountable figure in frontier history." Frazier Hunt (1885 - 1968) had the good fortune to have access to a great mass of fresh and unpublished source material which fully documents this thrilling history of the Kid and his times. It is a new and rather appealing boy who now comes to light-an alert, likeable yet tough youngster, adored by the native Mexicans no less for his fluency in Spanish than for his kindness and consideration, but no wanton killer. In place of the former distorted figure of legend, a young man of flesh and blood and heart emerges into clear perspective. So at last we have the real Billy the Kid-authentic, true-and completely accountable.
