This book is a compalation of stories ( in order for the most part) about hoppy and the whole gang. Action packed with battles of fist, gun, and wits. Hard to put down. It also tells the reason and sudden turn around of tex ewalts' hate for hoppy and the bar-20 to the great friendship seen in the other books.enjoy!

His Writing are the real thing! The characters are written so realisitc and not too super-human..... Mulford's stories of Hopalong make you feel like your reading about a real person form the past....

I found this to be a moving, deep story set in the old west. really liked the atmosphere

If you've never met red-haired, fast shooting, hard drinking, two fisted, quick-tempered Hopalong Cassidy, then you ain't been reading Clarence Mulford, the man who created Hoppy. In Mulford's books the cowboys are a somewhat romanticized version of the real thing. There is always a realistic Old West picture of people and places. After all, Mulford was born in 1883; he lived during those times. His style is often the Victorian indirect humor and description, without the dryness. But sometimes it is just plain danged good writing. Lots of interesting characters, and they're not cardboard. If you like history and the Old West, tag along the trail with Hoppy and the other boys from the Bar-20 Ranch. I bet you'll enjoy the ride.
