Frontier Fighting Was The Worst
When Popular Library first printed this book in 1954, Real Magazine said: A rough, tough hard-driving tale of a hell-for-leather trouble-shooter in the untamed West. Perhaps a bit of an exaggeration, but where Linus Quincannon went, no white man had ever gone before. He was on the trail of 300 army rifles, and it so happens he witnesses a council of war meeting of the Indians. To get back with that information was going to be the problem....The romance in this novel is typical "western" romance, and that is to say, hero meets girl; girl instantly dislikes hero because of his fearsome reputation; but learns to respect him and his ways as necessary, so she no longer fears him. This plot has been done before, but never as well as how Will Cook can present it. A fine book I whole heartedly recommend.
