Buckhorn

by William W. Johnstone, J. A. Johnstone

Overview

The masters of American frontier storytelling return with the saga of a bold, fearless  western legend. When you’re a gun for hire, the difference between right and wrong is settled with a bullet…
 
BUCKHORN
 
Crater City, New Mexico, is a bustling mining town brimming with the stench of men hungry to get rich the old fashioned way—killing the competition. Dennis Conroy is the owner of the biggest saloon in town, and he needs a few good sharpshooters to help protect surveyors laying out a route for a spur railine before his rival Hugh Thornton beats him to it. Joe Buckhorn’s handy with a gun so he takes the job. Against his best advice, he’ll also take a liking to the boss’s daughter, which  doesn’t go over well with her father. Worse, Buckhorn starts wondering exactly what kind of man he’s working for. Before the sun goes down much blood will be spilled  and a lot of men will be blasted into the middle of next week.
 
Joe Buckhorns aims to be sure he’s not one of them.

Being the all-around assistant, typist, researcher, and fact checker to one of the most popular western authors of all time, J.A. Johnstone learned from the master, Uncle William W. Johnstone.  
 
He began tutoring J.A. at an early age. After-school hours were often spent retyping manuscripts or researching his massive American Western History library as well as the more modern wars and conflicts. J.A. worked hard—and learned.
 
“Every day with Bill was an adventure story in itself. Bill taught me all he could about the art of storytelling. ‘Keep the historical facts accurate,’ he would say. ‘Remember the readers, and as your grandfather once told me, I am telling you now: be the best J.A. Johnstone you can be.’”
