Book Description
Western fiction is the classic American genre. It is folklore. Looking for years at the great film products of Hollywood with respectful envy and fond admiration, I am aware that I will never be involved in making a movie. Liking literature, I decided to write this south Texas western to make up for this. Being a great fan of westerns, I wanted to create one of my own. This is a romance of a cowboy with a rancher's daughter. There are also small cow town people, Indians, a mysterious gang of bad men with a secret hideout, an illustrious Spanish padre, a stately elder Indian war chief, and many other colorful characters. The lore of the old west in is presented to add flavor to the scenery, speech, customs, time and place. The reader's entertainment was the goal of all of this.
