Gunsight Pass: How Oil Came to the Cattle Country and Brought a New West

Gunsight Pass: How Oil Came to the Cattle Country and Brought a New West

Gunsight Pass: How Oil Came to the Cattle Country and Brought a New West

William MacLeod Raine

The title tells you everything this book is about: the moment oil came to cattle country and nothing was ever the same. Dave Sanders, an honest Arizona cowboy with a quick mind and a quicker trigger, finds himself wrongly accused of murder in a landscape being remade by greed and progress. What follows is pure Western adventure: desperate flight across hostile territory, showdowns with scalawags and scoundrels, and a fight for freedom that hinges on more than just surviving the desert. Raine captures the Old West at its inflection point, where the cattle kingdom collides with the oil boom and the old code of honor meets a new and ruthless economy. This is a story about keeping your name clean when the whole world is going corrupt, about justice in a land where the law moves slow but bullets move fast.
