A wanted fugitive with a price on his head; a hopeless derelict driven by his past to the depths of degradation and self-loathing. It would be ridiculous to think such an individual could rock the foundations of one of America's foremost mining empires, right? But perhaps Jethro Spring is not your ordinary, run-of-the-mill Leadville drunk. Perhaps it's important that he owns a key mining claim in a district being rapidly developed by the ruthless Amalgamated Minerals & Mining Company. Perhaps also of importance is the fact that Jethro Spring has long acquaintance with fist and gun. Then provide key informatin that Amalgamated Minerals & Mining is a cornerstone of the mighty Burroughts' Empire--the very corporate behemoth who drove Jethro to his personal hell. Throw all those components into a boiling pot, then watch the explosions that follow!

The Silver Yoke, sixth and final novel in the Valediction For Revenge series chronicling the life of Jethro Spring, a man torn between cultures; The Silver Yoke revisits Southwestern Colorado, where the fugitive protagonist owns a valuable mining claim in a region being rapidly ravished by the mining behemoth originally responsible for murdering the claim's former owner, Jethro's friend Gunnar Einarssens.

About the Author

Roland cheek prepared well for crafting exciting, informative tales set amid western history. As a long-time northern Rockies' guide, the man logged 35,000 horseback miles over many of the toughest trails in the West. Raised in Oregon, 40 years a Montanan, Roland horsebacked, hiked, rafted, cycled, and skied throughout much of the mountain West. That's why, when he tells of early buttercups or distant mountain peaks that scratch the sky, or storm clouds brewing in the southwest, or forking a bronc who has muscles of rubberbands that you can count the story as something he saw or felt or tasted or heard or smelled. It's that infatuation for the land and a life that makes Roland's writing so vivid, so stimulating, so real. And it's why, when his action begins, you think you have a ringside seat.
