Summary: revenge
Comment: The bad guys killed a man but they should have killed his son too. But, because they did not, that son took up the vengence trail and vowed he would live until the day those killers were dead. A very good story, fun and lots of good cowboy stuff.
Rating: 4
Summary: A GOOD WESTERN NOVEL RECOMMENDED BY "THE VIRGINIAN"!
Comment: After "Autumn of The Gun", "Border Empire" was a welcome return to the style of writing that makes Ralph Compton a good western writer.
Actually, this book is equal to the first two Nathan Stone novels. The only drawback of the book is the small part of Wes Stone's dog; a storyline that I enjoyed in the Nathan Stone books, which showcased a larger part for the two dogs.
I also recognized James Drury's review of the book though he chose not to identify himself. His stamp of approval is always good enough for me. For the one or two people who might not recognize his name, he played "The Virginian" on Television from 1962 to 1971 and made it impossible for me to watch anyone else play that part, including Gary Cooper.

Summary: A great, old fashioned western
Comment: A great book, typical of Compton! My only complaint is that he wasn't up on his clothing details to fit the historic old west, but that doesn't take away from the story. If you want the same type of story as Compton, but more accurate in details, read Kirby Jonas, whom critics call the New Louis L'Amour. He is neck and neck with L'Amour and Compton in every way!
