Book Description
A desert rescue, an Apache midnight visit, a lost preacher, an unexpected baptism, and an incredible gunfight all combine to make life in the Tularosa Basin exciting for Zenas Meeker and the Rafter JD vaqueros. Zenas and his pals cross the Tularosa Basin in search of gold and adventure only to find the water holes fouled by avenging Indians. They are rescued by a Rip Van Winkle and a mule named Pet. At the end of a cattle drive, Zenas joins the Army as a wagon driver and participates in the Red River War. In Mexico, he encounters a most unusual breed of cattle that proves to be too dangerous for the Apaches to steal. Death stalks Zenas and Van Hunsucker as they cross the Jornada Del Muerto. An eccentric mule causes an unexpected dunking and a catastrophe for Rip. And Will Castleberry, guide, gambler and gunman, is an unconscious participant in the most incredible gunfight in the old west...

Book Description
By the time Alamogordo's founders platted the town in the late 1800s, bestowing it with the Spanish name for Fat Cottonwood, the region's lush grasses were luring cowboys such as Oliver Lee. Then, in 1941, an event more than 3,000 miles away changed the quiet community. When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, chamber president Mose Cauthen quickly spearheaded bringing the Army's mission to train bomber pilots to the Tularosa Basin. During the Space Race, Dr. John Stapp oversaw the programs at Holloman Air Force Base that sent Joe Kittinger, Dave Simons, and "Demi" McClure floating heavenward underneath balloons. Soon after, Ed Dittmer was training chimpanzees to rocket out of Earth's atmosphere and prove man could survive in that hostile environment. Alamogordo is where the Old West melds with ever-evolving technology, along with a rich artistic and literary legacy championed by such women as Linnie Townsend, Maude Rathgeber, and Margaret Flickinger.
