No Bio

From Booklist:

This much-honored western author, the winner of five Spur awards, is the son of a ranching father and a mother who was part Osage and Sioux. Here he tells the story of Evan Shelby, West Point graduate, distinguished cavalry officer, and tuberculosis victim. Discharged from the army, Shelby settles in the New Mexico Territory where, with the help of a doctor who shares his malady, he is well on his way to being cured. Soon he finds himself in the middle of a conflict between local ranchers and a Texas cattle company with plans to move into the area, buy up the small ranches, and set up an enormous spread. The conflict is complicated by the fact that Shelby, on the side of the locals, finds himself falling in love the young woman who owns the Texas company. Mainstream western fare, sure to satisfy genre regulars. Budd Arthur
