Dan Cushman created the character of the Pecos Kid, a former officer in the Confederate Army who earned himself a reputation from the Rio Grande to Montana. His adventures began appearing in The Pecos Kid Western magazine, and are now, for the first time, collected in book form. Freighting on the Missouri River, cowpunching, homesteading desolate claims, cattle ranching and the U.S. Cavalry form the core of the gripping tales that will transport the reader back to the American frontier.
