Deputy Bart (Post-Civil War Western Justice)

Bart Fulton feels compelled by fate to pin on a deputy’s badge in
Arizona Territory’s Plain Creek. The young twenty-two-year old has drawn
an almost impossible first challenge – putting an end to the evil and
murderous ways of criminal Weed Meadows.

Weed doesn’t bat an eye
killing innocent people and threatening others. He wants to expand a
silver mine he stole. To do that he’ll have to get land from two
families, the Lees and the Rileys. There’s one problem – both families
have been feuding for years. Bart knows about Weed’s nefarious plans.
But convincing the Lees and the Rileys and getting them to stop fighting
among themselves is another challenge.

Deputy Bart Fulton will
have to use his courage and wits to be successful. He’ll also need a
different kind of nerve to court one of the Riley women, Lucinda, a shy
girl who is smitten with the deputy.

Another classic western with respectful romance and women as strong frontier folk from author William Black.
