Books with title Lin McLean 1907

McLEAN WENT EAST IN the old days, the happy days, when Wyoming was a Territory with a future instead of a State with a past, and the unfenced cattle grazed upon her ranges by prosperous thousands, young Lin Mc Lean awaked early one morning in cow camp, and lay staring out of his blankets upon the world. He would be twenty-two this week. He was the youngest cow-puncher in camp. But because he could break wild horses, he was earning more dollars a month than any man there, except one. The cook was a more indispensable person. None save the cook was up, so far, this morning. Lins brother punchers slept about him on the ground, some motionless, some shifting their prone heads to burrow deeper from the increasing day. The busy work of spring was over, that of the fall, or beef round-up, not yet come. It was mid-July, a lull for these hard-riding bachelors of the saddle, and many unspent dollars stood to Mr. Mc Leans credit on the ranch books. Whats the matter with some variety? muttered the boy in his blankets. The long range of the mountains lifted clear in the air.

In this novel after the young hero's first adventure with his elder brother and the bishop, a plot begins with the entrance of the biscuit-shooter, and steadily proceeds through climax and catastrophe to resolution.
