"This early cowboy western by Scots-Canadian writer Frederick Niven (1878-1944) is a character study of a frontier outlaw with “good” bad man credentials. Like other train robbers and road agents of western history, he is absorbed into the cowboy culture of the open range between his crimes. There, even should his identity be known, he’s given shelter from the long arm of the law." - Ron Scheer; Buddies In The Saddle. Early western by Chilean-born Scots-Canadian novelist Niven, Canada’s favorite hobo writer, featuring runaway Scotsman Will Barclay and train-robber The Apache Kid.; 316, 4 ad pages.
