About
A Tale of the Western Plains
After a family dispute leaves him penniless, young Hugh Tunstall flees England to seek his fortune on the untamed American frontier. Settling on a Texas cattle ranch, he learns the rugged trade of a cowboy while enduring fierce blizzards, wildfires, and lawless desperadoes. Hugh eventually journeys to New Mexico, where he survives dangerous skirmishes with hostile Native Americans and uncovers a valuable gold mine.
First published in 1891, this edition is derived from the original book with 12 black & white illustrations by Alfred Pearse. As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
