The Sheriff Of San Miguel

A rip-roaring, action-packed, western classic, back in print for the first time in over 70 years. A splendid historical novel of the old Santa Fe trail and the coming of the railroad. Los Angeles Daily News Ex-buffalo hunter and former lawman Kirk Calloway is searching for a woman he briefly met on the trail in Kansas...a romantic quest that takes him into a violent corner of New Mexico, where the railroad has brought in rustlers, bushwhackers, spoilers, cowpunchers and cattlemen all hoping to find their fortune amidst by the sweat, tears and bloodshed of the savage, crimson mesas. And it's where Alfredo Baca, the fearless young aristocrat and cattleman, wears the lawman's badge and thrives perilously on the risk and danger...and will either become Calloway's friend or deadly enemy. A less skillful writer would lose readers by the number of interesting characters in this epic, but Elston makes you feel that you know every one of them. An 'A' western. Los Angeles Daily News
