B. M. Bower used only her initials to sign these Western stories that have vast appeal because of her sense of humor, the strong ties of loyalty and family among her characters, as well as the authentic quality of her cowboy characters. In the title story, "Law on the Flying U," young Chip Bennett meets an old friend dodging the law and introduces him to Weary Davidson, the Flying U foreman, as a stranger in need of a job.
Bertha Muzzy Bower was the first woman to make a career of writing Western fiction and remains one of the most widely known. Her first novel, Chip of the Flying U, was initially published as a magazine story in 1904, and was an immediate success. Bower went on to write thirteen more books about the Flying U.
