The Big-Town Round-Up (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781479414666)

William MacLeod Raine (1871-1954) was a British-born American novelist who wrote fictional adventure stories about the American Old West. The Big-Town Round-Up is a "reverse Western." "Instead of the Easterner going West, Arizona comes to New York, the Big Town. "Arizona' is Clay Lindsay, as likable son of the windswept, sun-drenched desert as ever galloped through sag-brush -- or through the pages of a novel. His real work in New York is bettering gangsters and gun-men; for this unspoiled man -- hard as nails and very resourceful -- can outwit and outfight the worst bad men of the Metropolis -- and beat them at their own game. But even Arizona meets its match at last in the person of a girl as bold and resourceful as Clay Lindsay himself, and the ensuing events will fully satisfy the most romantic reader."
