Excerpt: ...before, which food is often fatal to horses not accustomed to feed on grain. This rancho is situated on the margin of a lake of brackish water, and we found the people actual prisoners within its walls, the gates being closed, and a man stationed on the azotea with a large wallpiece, looking out for Indians. At night a large fire was kindled on the roof, the blaze of which illuminated the country far and near. Not a soul would venture after sunset outside the gate, which the major-domo, a (Jachupin, refused to open to allow my, servant to procure some wood for a fire to cook my supper, and we had to content ourselves with one of corn-cobs, which lay scattered about the corral. On the 12th, passing Encinillas, a large hacienda belonging to Don Angel Trias, we encamped on the banks of an arroyo, running through the middle of a plain, walled by sierras, where the Apaches have several villages. This being very dangerous ground, we put out the fire at sunset, and took all precautions against surprise. The animals fared badly, the grass being thin and burned up by the sun, and what little there was being of bad quality. The next day we reached the small village of El Carmen, and, camping by a little thread of a rivulet outside of the town, were surrounded by all the loafers of the village.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of Ruxton's classic account of the great frontier This is young Frederick Ruxton's second volume of his Western frontier adventures. Readers may be confused by the many titles this author's work have been given. These have occurred primarily as the totality of his writing has been divided in different ways to suit the needs of a particular publisher. In this special two volume edition from Leonaur-available in hardcover with dust jacket for collectors and in softcover-all of Ruxton's exciting western writings appear together. In this volume Ruxton comes in contact with the deadly knights of the south-west-the Comanche's-and with many other perils of the American wilderness. This was a time of turmoil between the United States and Mexico and war, with all its uncertainties, was also imminent. 'Life in the Far West', the first of the series is also available from Leonaur.
