About this title

Synopsis:

Jesse Coldiron tries to get revenge after he is robbed of his herd and shot by a wounded man during a cattle drive to Colorado

From Library Journal:

Oldham County, Texas in 1884 was no place for the timid. Powerful cattle ranchers manipulated the law to their advantage, while thugs like J.W. Cain operated on the fringes of the law for a tidy profit. Veteran cowboy Jesse Coldiron comes to Texas in pursuit of his cattle, scattered by an early winter storm. Jesse's struggle to recover economic independence mixes with his contest with Cain for the hand of lovely Tracey James to make up the plot of this traditional Western. First-time author Browna working cowboy, rodeo performer, and poethas written an authentic, exciting, satisfying novel of Texas life. In this cliched and often-overlooked genre, his effort is welcome. William C. McCully, Park Ridge P.L., Ill.
