Bøger af John Tilley

A cool ale in a Baltimore tavern plus a Mickey Finn turned young Tubar Lane''s student world into hell. Bounced out of school and disgraced, he could not return home to a strict father. He walked to the railroad yard where he met a train-hopping gunman. And that was the beginning of Tubar''s long trek to wild and wooly Dodge City. It was 1872-the year of the great buffalo herds, of Indians, gunslingers, outlaws and renegades. * * * * * John Tilley was born in southern West Virginia in the sawmill community of Maben and grew up in the coal mining towns of Bud-Alpoca.
