Another great Western by Brian Kelling. The Long Canyon Mountains is Kelling's second western, this one based in New Mexico. Very detailed and complex, for a traditional western. All the usual elements are here: battle for grazing; beautiful woman; gold and silver. But especially satisfying is his inclusion of John J. "Blackjack" Pershing as a young officer, and also Elfego Baca -- both historical figures from this era.
A GREAT read!
