Lone Rider from Texas Western Stories

The heart of the American West lives in Peter Dawson's stories, with characters that blaze a trail over a land coming of age. At times the law itself couldn't be trusted, as in "Manhunt in Malpais," while in "Lawman of Latigo Wells," a deputy sheriff's reputation for fearlessly pursuing his duties works against him. In "Bushwhack Heritage," a young man is in a quandary when all the evidence in two murder cases points directly at his father, and in the title story a Texas cattle rancher rides into New Mexico to learn why his name has been implicated in a theft. These and three more stories embody the dramatic struggles that made the American frontier unique and its people the stuff of legends.
