Summary
"'Brand of the Bear Flag Mutineers' chronicles a bitter and bloody confrontation between U.S. soldiers and Secessionist troops in California's rugged San Bernardino Mountains during the Civil War. In 'The Dark Border' a pair of adventurous cowmen win a hardscrabble ranch in a dice game in the south Texas badlands, and their subsequent involvement in the illegal running of cattle across the Mexican border leads to hard lessons learned for both.... [The] central ingredient [of 'Chivaree'] is the marriage of a white man and a half-breed Sioux woman ... The novel, Blood on the Bozeman Trail, is an exciting tale of a freight-line owner beset by trouble from cut-throat competitors, Indian raiding parties, and other hazards during a trek along the Bozeman Trail from Cheyenne to the Montana border." --
