Frank Bonham's talent for combining picturesque historical and geographical settings with swiftly paced narratives makes him one of the premier Western writers of all time. Now, for the first time in book form, here is a collection of Frank Bonham's finest Western stories, selected and edited by Bill Pronzini. "A River Man Goes to War" is set at the beginning of the War Between the States. In "Wanted!" a former captain of the Army, Swain Barker, has been convicted of embezzling. In "Hell in Dakota" rancher Sam Randall, like everyone else on the range, has his back against the wall. In "Death Valley Silver" Jim Bayliss knows Death Valley well from his time as a cartographer with the Army.
Frank Bonham achieved excellence as a noted author for his contributions to western fiction. Bill Pronzini lives with his wife, author Marcia Muller, in Petaluma, California.

This volume brings together some of his most memorable works and intriguing characters, including: two riverboat partners whose sympathies lie with opposing sides during The War Between the States, a former army captain on the trail of the embezzler who framed him, a rancher who risks his life by refusing to "harvest" wild mustangs for their hides, and a mapmaker pressed into service by a gang of outlaws to help them find a lost army payroll. In each story, Bonham draws you back in time to experience the way of the West as it really was.
