  • Thirty-One Years on the Plains and In the Mountains

    William F. Drannan

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Oct. 13, 2015)
    William F. Drannan, according to this classic volume, led a singular and exciting life. Some modern readers, shall we say, suggest that he has exaggerated a bit. Some even call his work a hoax. Most readers, however, don’t care whether Drannan actually knew Kit Carson, General Crook, and famous others of the Old West or whether he just borrowed their names to create an exciting and wonderfully entertaining series of tales. So suspend your disbelief. Pour a cup or glass or your favorite beverage, lean back, and prepare for adventure.
