DescriptionJohnstone Country. A Home Worth Fighting For. Scotsman-turned-cowboy Duff MacCallister traveled far and worked hard to start a new life in America. And anyone who tries to mess with his dream is in for some serious Highland justice . . . KILLER TAKE ALL The cattle town of Chugwater may not look like much to outsiders. But for Duff MacCallister and the determined settlers whove staked their futures here, its a land of opportunity. Thats why the whole town is fired up by the latest news. Young railroad developer Jacob Freemantle wants to run a rail line through Chugwater, making it easier to transport cattle. Everyone is on board with the plan--at first. Duff begins to suspect that Freemantle is only after the most valuable land, and hes using strongarm tactics to force reluctant ranchers to sell. Things only get worse when Freemantles hired guns show up--and the violence really begins . . . But Duffs got a plan of his own. With a little help from some well-armed friends, hes going to flush this phony out of Chugwater--and run his hired killers out of town on a rail . . . Live Free. Read Hard. About the AuthorWilliam W.

Being the all-around assistant, typist, researcher, and fact checker to one of the most popular western authors of all time, J.A. Johnstone learned from the master, Uncle William W. Johnstone. He began tutoring J.A. at an early age. After-school hours were often spent retyping manuscripts or researching his massive American Western History library as well as the more modern wars and conflicts. J.A. worked hard--and learned. Every day with Bill was an adventure story in itself. Bill taught me all he could about the art of storytelling. Keep the historical facts accurate, he would say. Remember the readers, and as your grandfather once told me, I am telling you now: be the best J.A. Johnstone you can be.
