Now we have the interconnected stories that form the dramatic saga of Burnt Creek, a small crossroads town in central Oregon, populated by daring homesteaders. One of these brave pioneers, Dave Budd, merchant, postmaster, and locator, has proven to be one of Haycox's most enduring, indelible characters. Here is the West as it really was, filled with people as they really were, presented by a true master. |
