So, through the years, I revised and increased those journal works into fuller-length novels that I released in paperback below different titles.

“I wish you take pleasure in them.”

I been over the trail to Dodge twice,” Tex said, “and to Wyomin’ once. ” “I’ll chance it,” Tex Brisco agreed. ” “Me for the goldfields in Nevada,” Rock said. “That’s good for me,” Penn said. ” ____________ THERE WAS NO trail through the tall grass but the one the mind could make, or the instinct of the cattle moving toward water.

Brisco glanced around and then at Rafe. ” The other two hands rode up—Johnny Gill and Bo Marsh, both Texans.
