Not so bad as so many British-written Westerns, but very dull.
Lots of things happen, but usually they are described later, afterward, by one character or another to some one or some group.
Author Irwin could have avoided that by not writing in the first person and just telling the story.
He did at least avoid the purplish prose, but he also avoided any excitement or even interest.
