Silverspur; Or, The Mountain Heroine: A Tale of the Arapaho Country

In the high country of the Arapaho, a man called Silverspur has earned a reputation written in courage and blood. Fred Wilder rides through a landscape of staggering beauty and mortal danger, where every canyon may hide enemies and every summit offers a new test of nerve. When Old Blaze tracks him to a frontier saloon seeking the legendary hero, we enter a world of hard men, harder truths, and the delicate flower of love blooming amid violence - specifically, the Native American woman Dove-eye, whose relationship with Wilder promises both tenderness and tragedy. This is frontier adventure in the romantic tradition: propulsive, morally clear-eyed, and rich with the particular hazards of a vanishing West.
