Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Golden West Boys: Injun and Whitey, Strike Out for Themselves Across the sky were fleeting clouds which seemed to blend in with the thoughts of a boy that stood, his hands clasped in the hand of his father, on a small station platform in the Dakota Territory in the early eighties. As the boy stood silent and afraid, waiting for the big giant of the rails that was to come and take him far away from the country of which he was a part, he could hear the cluck of the prairie chickens as they walked unmolested within fifty yards of the station; he could see a mile distant a low line of poplars that fringed in yellow waves the young river that leapt down the gorge and smiled in happiness as it passed. He could see along the great line of the horizon wild geese flying swiftly south, for it was the late fall of the year when the buffalo grass sighed and looked from right to left waiting for Nature, the Boss Reaper, to come along and take her toll. He could see the red sun wending its downward course where it was to set alone in silence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
