Inhaltsangabe

With the publication of Marshal South Rides Again, a new generation is being introduced to these fast-paced, non-stop action cliffhangers that are set in the land he knew best - the desert that surrounded his Ghost Mountain home. South weaved local tales about the old Butterfield Vallecito Stage Station around stories he had heard about his backcountry neighbors to develop his storyline and characters. He wrote what he knew firsthand and gave intriguing descriptions of local landmarks that readers familiar with the Anza-Borrego area may be able to decipher. Prepare for a rollicking good read as the hero uses his to save the day, win the damsel in distress, and acquire the wealth of his dreams.
