The River Series, Book 1: Trouble on the Bosque (The River Series Westerns) Kindle Edition

by Herb Marlow (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.8 out of 5 stars 5 ratings
The road from Louisiana to the L Bar Ranch on the Bosque River, Texas is a long and dangerous one, but for Earl Lamar, recently discharged sergeant from the First Texas Confederate Cavalry, it's the only way home.

After surviving the war, discharged Confederate soldier Earl Lamar learns his parents didn't...and the responsibility of the L Bar Ranch falls to him.

After selling enough cattle to care for the original cowboys and new families, the Esperanzas and the Roses along with cook Henry Spooner, Earl has his work cut out for him keeping the ranch going with rustlers, conmen, false imprisonment and Comanche raids all presenting tough challenges to be overcome. When Earl falls in love and he and Gloria find themselves expecting their first child, he begins to hope that maybe, just maybe, a new life awaits him on the Bosque.

"There is action, tragedy, and a love interest in this enjoyable book, and the settings are vivid and realistic, down to the tools, weapons, and even the clothing of the characters. I can highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys westerns, and for those who haven't read a western, this is a great way to start.

I rate it at 5 stars out of 5."

~ John Schembra, author

    In the aftermath of the Civil War folks who were going to rebuild this country had to learn to get along and work together. This is a good telling of how such rebuilding might have taken place...even dealing with those from both sides who wanted to be troublemakers.
