FIGHTING HORSE VALLEY
- A vintage western story by Will Jenkins /aka Murray Leinster with an introduction by one of his daughters.
It's 1934 and the New Deal price for gold leads Chet Holliday into Alminas to reopen an abandoned gold mine. This is the real Wild West, in which the conflict between Chet and the outlaw horse Typhoon is a strictly personal battle, and where six-guns still flash upon occasion.
When Chet turns prospector, he little reckons with the cold fury of Wallace, uncle of the lovely Carol Bradley, or with de Aviguez, who bore a mysterious and powerful hold over Wallace. He couldn't guess why Wallace, eager that the mine should remain undisturbed, should take steps to drive him out of Alminas, why even the sheriff was in concert with Wallace and de Aviguez in their treacherous undertaking.
But he learned! Events moved fast in Alminas. Too fast to suit several hombres with plans of their own concerning Chet. A Will Jenkins adventure yarn that can confidently be said to be his most startling, compelling and altogether thrilling tale of the West he knows so well.
