Lin McLean

In the old days when Wyoming was a Territory, young Lin McLean, the youngest cow-puncher in camp, wakes one July morning with a restless desire for variety. Leaving his job and his wages behind, he heads to Fort Washakie, where he encounters a wolf-dance, a bishop's church service, and a new girl named Sabina. His journey takes him eastward, but his plans are as changeable as the wind. Along the way, he meets old friends, faces the temptations of gamblers, and dreams of gold. This classic Western tale captures the spirit of the frontier, where a young man's search for adventure and meaning unfolds against the vast landscapes of Wyoming.
