The Rio Hondo War

They came from the East-well-heeled city men with money in their wallets and greed and hate in their hearts.Texas was their destination-in particular the cattle country of the Rio Hondo, which they thought to take over with the aid of their hired gunmen.But when they chose the Rio Hondo country, they chose wrong, for this Rio Hondo country meant an outfit called the OD Connected, and that meant a man called Dusty Fog. J.T. Edson brings to life the fierce and often bloody struggles of untamed West. His colorful characters are linked together by the binding power of the spirit of adventure -- and hard work -- that eventually won the West. With more than 25 million copies of his novels in print, J.T. Edson has proven to be one of the finest craftsmen of Western storytelling in our time. J.T. Edson describes a Floating Outfit as a group of cowhands who travel the outer sections of ranchland dealing with problems that occur far from the main house. Dusty Fog, The Ysabel Kid and Mark Counter make up the Floating Outfit at the OD Connected Ranch, and they travel far and wide punching cows and righting wrongs in the old West.
