Cabin Fever (Annotated‪)‬

This edition includes the following editor's introduction: The Western genre and B. M. Bower
Originally published in 1918, “Cabin Fever” is considered one of the best western novels by American author B. M. Bower.

“Cabin Fever” is a light reading western that follows the wanderings of Bud as his marriage breaks apart and he is thrust out in the world with only a ten-spot to his once-prosperous name. Taking a job working for another man, he innocently ends up deep in the midst of a crime…and wanted by law officers in several western states.

If you would test the soul of a friend, take him into the wilderness and rub elbows with him for five months. Either you will hate each other forever afterwards, or emerge with contempt tinged with a pitying toleration -- or you will be close, unquestioning friends to the end of your days.
