An album of five early western tales taken from the incidents and life styles common to the !850 era in our southwest. Written history states that murder and killing was common place between the mixed races at that time. Much more brutal and horrifying than the movies. My stories are written to bring, entertainment, adventure, unusual drama humor and romance where possible Violence unfortunately , was not rare. Life was short for most and shorter for others. 39 was an old man. Raiding a Cattle drive was bound to end with killing as trail driver Gyp said, “ You do that! I’ll meet you in Gun smoke Mister! Be sure to come shooting so I’ll know who you are. I wouldn’t wanna make a mistake thinking you might be an honest man.” Thanks for the read. Hope you enjoy.
