Powder River

by Ralph Cotton, Laura Ashton (Editor)

Overview

In Powder River, outlaw Jeston Nash—the look-alike cousin of Jesse James and horse-man for the infamous James-Younger Gang—and his partner, Quiet Jack Smith,
find themselves entangled in the onrush of historical events leading up to the Powder River Indian War.

Attracted by rumors and the profits of war, a strange assortment of characters—outlaws, loose women, lawmen, bounty hunters, preachers, and Washington attachés—lay in wait like vultures to pick the bones of the mighty Sioux Nation as it reels on the verge of extinction.

In Old West Tradition, Powder River is a richly woven earth colored tapestry that
brings together the best and worst of our Western Heritage. Like all western classics, the pages turn quickly and leave a lasting impression.
