Summary, etc |
In the 1870's, when Lucien B. Maxwell sold his alleged two million acre grant in northeastern New Mexico to an English syndicate, controversies erupted over land entitlements destined to last for decades. Aaron Nye, an Illinois Yankee, and on personal terms with the cattle baron, had all ready acquired some twenty thousand acres of the Maxwell grant which he was in the process of fencing. When Texan born, Will Moon happens along enroute to Colorado in search of a place of his own, Nye presuades him to hire on. Together they complete the fence, and are on the way to establising a proven beef heard when Nye is mysteriously bushwhacked. This leaves Will Moon to carry on what he realizes has become so much a part of him, he cannot turn away. With the responsibility of over-seeig land and cattle, and protecting a family that has become like his own, the turbulent years gradually unfold against the backdrop of the Colfax County War. |
