Publisher Description
Paul McAllister, an aging military retiree, wants nothing more at this point in his life than to put the wars, cancer, and death of his wife behind him as he numbly glides into his final years doing the only thing he still enjoys – selling weapons and his services as a gunsmith on the gun show circuit of the American southwest.
Driving down the road in the Mesilla Valley of southern New Mexico, sandwiched in the few hundred yards between the Robledo Mountains to the West and the Rio Grande to the East, Paul loses consciousness while returning home from a gun show. An hour later, he regains consciousness finding himself swept away on the tides of time. Is he really in the past? Is he dreaming? Is he in the midst of a psychotic episode? So begins his journey of discovery. In the process, he fights Apache, Comanche, and Navajo warriors, discovers his roots, mines gold, finds love and friendship, and makes powerful enemies, all while establishing a home in the Mesilla Valley on the banks of the Rio Grande.

very entertaining
couldn’t stop reading one of my favorite categories definitely worth the time
Very enjoyable read!
One of my favorite mix of genres - a Western do-over, and this one was done right! Mixing in the history of the West and early America makes a totally believable plot. That, coupled with a charming, self-possessed protagonist, makes this a great read. Looking forward to the continuing adventure in book 2. Well worth my $$!
