About this ebook
The best men I've known have been cowmen.
There's a code they live by-it's their way of life. It starts with an abiding reverence for the Good Lord. They're taught to honor and respect their parents and to share both blanket and bread. Their words are their bond, a handshake their contract. They're good stewards of His creation, the land. They believe the words in His Book. Learn from these men-from their stories of triumph over tragedy-victory over adversity, for the wisdom of others blows where it wishes-like a Louisiana Wind.
This is the story of such men... From master storyteller Randy Willis...an action-packed western saga inspired by a true story.
