Had to lighten up a bit. My cerebellum was throbbing. Western writer from way back. Unbelievable how fast this guy churned out the books. A lot of posthumous work, but this was actually his 3rd published novel, based on his real life adventure of a horseback journey from Arizona up through the Grand Canyon and into Wyoming. Accompanied a buffalo hunter and some other cowboys. Pretty descriptive of what it must have been like back then. The cougar tracking was the most interesting. A nice relaxing summer read.
Grade - B
