Western fiction stories which depict pioneer and Indian activities in our early western frontier.
It is my opinion that the introduction of a book should warn you of it’s contents and In doing so prepare you for things that may be unusual or surprising in nature. A number of my stories originate from actual events in our early west particularly in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. I have been an avid student of pioneer and Indian activities in those areas. I sincerely hope that my fictional stories do not offend or embarrass any nationality or lifestyle. I have endeavored to put realism in my narratives without overly offensive language, or fantasy. My characters are drawn from the characteristics and lifestyle of men and women depicted in historical writings and diaries from the 1840 to 1885 era. This was the time of Indian wars, Renegade pillaging, Wagon Trains and major Gunfighter incidents.
