A Rider of the High Mesa (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781667662770)

A lone rider crosses a dry plain to help ranchers facing ruin. Cattle are dying, wells run low, and outlaws take what they can. Families fear losing land they have worked for years, and neighbors argue as old grudges flare. The rider must work out who tells the truth and who lies. He learns to bargain with stubborn men, sleep under cold stars, mend a wounded horse, and ride hard across rough canyons. He meets folk who have lost hope and some who still try to do right.

When the outlaws press their claim, the rider faces a final fight on the high mesa. Small acts of kindness and hard choices show what it takes to keep a community whole. The story follows courage, duty, and the price of justice on the open range. It is a plain, steady tale of survival and honor in a harsh land where one stand can change many lives.
