Customer Reviews

The cowboy not depicted in westerns!

This book turned out to be far more interesting than I anticipated it would be. Rarely do you get the feelings of comraradie found among ranch hands, or envision them doing the day to day tasks such as washing or mending clothes from films about the old west. I have also read several books by Larry McMurtry and Louis D'Amour in years past and have not felt the emotions of the cowboy come through as strongly as in this book. In one episode one of the men lost a friend whom he had known throughout his school days, killed by rustlers. The sadness and anger felt by this loss of friendship and senseless death colored the rest of the novel. You are sure to enjoy this work especially if you have an interest in the Old West!

One of the Best Western Authors

His Writing are the real thing! The characters are written so realisitc and not too super-human..... Mulford's stories of Hopalong make you feel like your reading about a real person form the past....

I love this original series

The whole original Hopalong Cassidy series is a great, easy read. Good characters and the settings can't be beat. If you can find this book or any others in this series, grab them. They are hard to find but worth the search if you like Westerns.
