Apache Tears, by Robert MacLeod: A revenge novel, but one that rises above the standard. Powerful and emotional. It strongly affected me the first time I read it. One of my favorite non-L'Amour westerns.

Although it is a "historical novel," somehow it still feels dated. I put my feminist nature aside and just enjoyed it for what it was when it was written--it would not have seemed racist at the time.

Good adult western, worthy of 4 1/2 stars if it could be given. This book has an usual storyline as recent army sergeant leaves the army to go to work for an archaeologist and his daughter to study the Indian ruins in Arizona. They run into a couple of bad guys and murder and mayhem ensues. Highly recommended to western fans.
