| Publisher Description: Apache Gold is a rip-roaring tale of adventure set on the Arizona frontiers of the American Old West. An abiding classic of western literature, our hero in this tale is Charles Wayne, a young but strong and sharp lad who seeks adventure in the southwesterly desert frontier of Arizona. His quest is fulfilled and then some: the hostile and arid environment, and the threat of ambush or robbery, are constant hindrances that require immense grit to surmount. Fortunately, Charles finds a true friend with whom he attempts to combat the adversities of wilderness. Altsheler describes the vast open frontier evocatively, placing the reader in a time when equal measures of freedom and danger were abundant. Throughout Mr. Wayne's traversals, we're reminded of how difficult it was to survive - let alone thrive - in the Old West. The beauty of the unforgiving land forms a vibrant backdrop to the scrapes and challenges our heroes must face. |
