Shadow Mountain

TRILOGY - Three westerns by Dane Coolidge are in this eBook: Shadow Mountain, Rimrock Jones and The Texican

Shadow Mountain (1918)
Under the rim of Shadow Mountain, gold prospectors moved into the vacant houses along with the other desert rats. The daughter of the old paymaster was a waitress when Wiley Homan came back into town to find her. Virginia had always been convinced that Wiley's father had robbed her father. Now here was Willy, sitting in front of her with a massive gold ring, asking whether they could be friends. But that was not all he wanted.

Rimrock Jones (1917)
This is the story of greed, high finance, and mining law. Rimrock Jones was made into a Hollywood film in 1918 with matinee idol Wallace Reid.

The Texican (1911)
The "Texican" in the title is rustler Pecos Dalhart, who lands in the middle of a feud between rival cattlemen. This is both a tale of cattle ranchers and a political satire.
