Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Whispering Sage The scorching rays of the noonday sun beat down upon the Nevada desert. For mile on mile the alkali flats stretched away until the eye wearied of distance. Across the waste two tiny specks moved. Save for them all life seemed, dead. Long before sunrise they had crossed the mighty range to the north, now dwarfed by distance into little, fantastic hills of purple cotton. Both horses and men were gray with dust. The horses snorted from time to time, to blow the biting alkali from their nostrils. The men´s throats were bricky dry, too; and yet the taller of the two hummed a song. Ahead of them green trees beckoned. It was the fringe of stunted cedars that had been their sign-post all morning long. They expected to find water and grass in the Timbered Buttes. Beyond that, they had no plans. Abruptly they began climbing the bench lands. Their circle of vision widened. They topped the crest, and the country of the Little Washoe burst upon them. Paradise Valley spread out in a gigantic horseshoe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
