5.0 out of 5 stars To Much
A typical trail drive story. Lots of problems but what would you expect when you're driving thru a thousand miles of Indians, harsh land wet and dry, raining hard and hotter than the worst desserts. You may have survived the civil war but this is a different story. Another very intertaining trail drive except Mr. Compton had just to many rain storm disasters.

2.0 out of 5 stars 40 days and 40 nights!
this is not one of Comptons best efforts! It must have rained for 40 days and 40 nights. reminds me of the character in Lil' Abner that had a rain cloud following him around. Not much action and too much boring details about trail herding. The main character starts out with $40,000 dollars. If you read this book, keep a running total of the amount he spends.... even...

2.0 out of 5 stars 40 days and 40 nights!, July 23, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
this is not one of Comptons best efforts! It must have rained for 40 days and 40 nights. reminds me of the character in Lil' Abner that had a rain cloud following him around. Not much action and too much boring details about trail herding. The main character starts out with $40,000 dollars. If you read this book, keep a running total of the amount he spends.... even in 1866 prices. the acurracy of these coyboys using new unfamielier rifles at 1000 yds is unbelievable. Sorry Compton only two stars...don't worry I will buy other books by you. most hat I have read are very good.
