Reckoning Trail: A Classic Western Told by A True Outlaw
Most gunslingers in the Old West never had the luxury of growing old; theirs was a short life of sharp wits, fast horses, and always looking over your shoulder, waiting for that one person who was just a little bit quicker on the draw than you were.
Even more atypical is finding that needle in a haystack; an outlaw who managed to not only outwit all his enemies but make it past one hundred years of age until death finally knocked on his door.
This story, inspired by the real-life accounts of Clarence Simmons, is a rare peek into the life of the American outlaw; his childhood friends, his family and loved ones, his hopes and fears, and the one person he vowed to outlive.

Great story!!!
I loved the fact that the author wrote the story without using profanity. The story was exciting and flowed well.

A glimpse of history
A little dry, but an interesting look at the real 'old west' as seen through the eyes of one man who made that history
