Max Brand (actually Frederick Schiller Faust) wrote a lot of good westerns, but this one left me scratching my head. I especially wondered about the last third of the book, as it seemed to make no sense.
Frederick Schiller Faust had so many pen names I bet he had trouble remembering them all. And how many people know he wrote the Dr. Kildare books? In the last half of World War II he applied to become a war correspondent and, for him, that meant up front. While serving with American forces in Italy in 1944 he was killed while under artillery fire. Check out his page on Wikipedia.
