Publisher's summary

Raised in poverty in Missouri, Mac is determined to find a better life for himself and the girl who is still a vague vision in his mind. Work on the Santa Fe Trail, and on a Mississippi River boat give him a start, but the years of Civil War leave him broke and footloose in South Texas. There he discovers more cattle running loose than he ever knew existed. Teaming up with two ex-Federal soldiers, he sets out to gather his wealth, one head at a time. While gathering and driving Longhorns, Mac and his friends meet an interesting collection of characters, including Margo. Mac and Margo and the crew learn about Longhorns, and life, from hard experience before they eventually head west. Outlaws and harrowing river crossings are just two of the challenges they face along their way.

A Good, Clean, Action-Packed Western!

The author's good writing and the narrator's good reading combined to make this book a memorable adventure. Both the characters and the plot are believable. Instead of watching the story unfold, I often felt as if I were riding along with the characters. I found no dull spots in the story. When I finished the book, I could see another Reg Quist novel showing up on my reading list soon.

Great book, lousy narration

This narrator should find another job that does not require speech. Simple words mispronounced, monotone voice and just lousy narration. I enjoy Reg Quist books, but buy the kindle edition and read it. Save your ears from this wasteful effort.

It would be a good free book.

It wouldn't be a bad free book but not really good enough to pay for. With practice the narrator could be good. He mispronounced lots of words and completely changed others according to the book. It sounded too much like he was reading from the book. The story line isn't all that bad.
