I’ve read this book and I’ve listened to this book many times. I enjoy the story and the outcome also. Please give it a try.
Riders of the Purple Sage
Great read, especially when you have just moved to Arizona. And being originally from Utah, it gives you a more interesting story. Grey is definitely a great story teller. This one irritated the Mormons, but a good story needs a bad guy!!! I’m exploring the northern Arizona and Southern Utah region in my retired years. This story helped make my visits to towns in the region more fun. Frontier men and women were surely tough and lived by a different code than we do today. We should keep more of their ways!
