About this book
A delayed train leaves Edward B. Rutherford, Jr., stranded at the Valley City depot with his cameras, fishing rods and considerable Boston pride. His ranching friend Tom finds plenty to laugh at in his discomfort. Around the shabby station, prairie heat and local teasing turn an ordinary wait into a comic introduction to the West. A. Maynard Barbour sets this Rocky Mountain novel among travelers, ranchmen and miners, with sharp differences in manners and expectations.
The mood grows more uneasy in the mining community. Houston has enemies, a secret purpose and reason to fear that his plans may fail. Jack, a reserved man he has encountered in the mine, offers both a warning and a private meeting at his cabin.
