From one of the greatest Western writers of all time, Lee Nelson, comes Born to Rope. The flinch in a horse's, the drop of a boy's eyes: This is a rare book, attentive to the simple detail out of which great stories flow. From mustang bands sweeping up the hidden draws and ridges of the high, desolate San Rafael Swell to a horse-trading oasis hidden deep in an auto-wrecking yard on the outskirts of Spanish Fork, Utah, Nelson finds voices, elegant in their terseness, of people you never knew but should know. This is the story of Michael Diamond's coming of age, of finding grace in tragedy.

Lee Nelson was a public relations and advertising copywriter before his first book was published in 1979. Lee is best known for his Storm Testament series historical novels (nine volumes), and his Beyond the Veil series (four volumes).
Lee is well known for his authentic research, which includes killing a buffalo from the back of a galloping horse with a bow and arrow, crossing the murky waters of the Green River many times on horseback, and riding with Mongolian nomads while gathering research for an upcoming book.
