Now I'm definitely hooked! I'm not a huge fan of the Ranger-sort-of vibe but this sounds promising.

I like the review on Clevenger Gold by S.E. Swapp where it starts when John and Frank are playing cards. I love the western theme, and love these style books in the summertime. I can't wait to read this.

i really enjoyed reading this book. Its authenticity and descriptive work is fantastic. Although i am not conversant with western history, this book gives a lot of light about the same. Its great for it kept me wanting to know what will happen in the next page.

Murder was the wrong choice. If a person have bad temper and wrong behaviour with people then , there must be something wrong with him. He shouldn't be murdered. He should be consoled. And treausre is something that is only be takes by determined people who have a strong desire for what they are looking for. Although, the review was good it really gave the overlook of full story ??

Its a well thought out story. I can imagine what it would be like to travel The Oregon Trail. This book gives you an idea. Thank you for the book. I enjoyed reading it

I think learning about how people lived back during the wild west and the Oregon Trail is inspiring. It sounds like a book I could get into.

This sounds like a great read. The book explores the hardships that Europeans went through as they travelled through the "New world" and their determination. Also issues of racism are addressed here meaning that the people still had the whiteman's superiority complex problem that still exists until now. Great review though on the book.

I love westerns - this sounds very similar to Tombstone! A western has to have all those elements in it so this book sounds like it has it all.
