Jim the Conqueror

1921. Illustrated by H.R. Ballinger and Dean Cornwell. The book begins: For the first time in sixty years, Pablo Artelan, the majordomo of the Rancho Palomar, was troubled of soul at the approach of winter. Old Don Miguel Farrel had observed signs of mental travail in Pablo for a month past, and was at a loss to account for them. He knew Pablo possessed one extra pair of overalls, brand-new, two pairs of boots which young Don Miguel had bequeathed him when the Great White Father at Washington had summoned the boy to the war in April of 1917, three chambray shirts in an excellent state of repair, half of a fat steer jerked, a full bay of Bayo beans, and a string of red chilli-peppers pendant from the rafters of an adobe shack which Pablo and his wife, Carolina, occupied rent free. Certainly (thought old Don Miguel) life could hold no problems for one of Pablo's race thus pleasantly situated. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.

But that Doesn't Keep Him from Coming Back Stronger Than Ever

Cappy Ricks Retires

Two momentous things happened to Lee Purdy, dreamer and owner of a ranch in New Mexico called The Enchanted Hill. Bud Shannon, a total stranger, took a long shot at him with a rifle; and later at a desert railroad stop, Lee met the loveliest woman he had ever laid eyes upon. With the aid of a quick brain and an iron nerve, he managed to escape Bud's butler, but his heart was no match for the woman Gail Ormsby. He soon learns that he cannot escape everything, including the woman who got off the train on one unexpected spring day.
