Arizona Callahan

Arizona Callahan rides into a landscape that defies expectation. The Beaver Islands of Lake Michigan, wind-scoured and savage, become the theater for Bedford-Jones at his finest: a frontier tale where civilization is thin as ice and survival demands both gunpowder and guile. Callahan himself is the ideal pulp hero, a man of action whose reputation precedes him into these strange waters, where the inhabitants of this isolated archipelago carry their own histories and their own dangers. The story pulses with the kinetic energy of early adventure fiction, balancing visceral action against the mythic quality of islands that once tried to establish their own kingdom. Bedford-Jones understands that true adventure lives in the collision between a man and a place that refuses to be tamed. For readers who grew up on Louis L'Amour and Zane Grey, or anyone who believes the best stories happen at the edges of the map, this is frontier fiction firing on all cylinders.
