Wrango
Wrango is probably the best book you will ever read. It is a story about George McJunkin. He lives with his family until some bad guys come and he goes after Valdor a hired hand that works for them. He catches up with him and gets a job. They head out and George gets into a few mishaps trying to strangle some one, catching a buffalo, and getting bit by a rattle snake. Charlie the person he tried to strangle was in the river and is drowning, George gets his rope and saves him. This book taught me what a remuda was and a lot of other Spanish words. The book is based on a true story. This is why you should read it.
OKay, but not too long , (sigh) , could been better.
Well, it's okay, very exctiing and action packed but a little too short. The book has lots of cool things like the glossary of spanish words and the mini biography of the real life person, George "Mcjunkin", who was in the story. Great for people who read before bed but not harry potter fans that like long books. This is more of a itermediate book. Well I really enjoyed it.
Um okay good for bed readers
Well this book was pretty good. the beginng was okay then It got really excitning. The book is really good. I consider it to people who read before bed and maybe adventure seekers. It's pretty exiting with lots of juicy parts and suspens. The cool thing is ..........is the book was based on a true story so um the book sounds good but to hear it was true wow. But this is a great book for the price it's at and don't worry it's not as long as "other books".

SOLDIER BOY; GOOD BOOK WITH A BAD ENDING
Soldier boy was a book about a boy who enlisted himslef in the army to hide from the mob. After enlisted he started to dislike the Army, he was not being treated with respect. He then was moved to a fort in the Black Hills where he would fight the Indians under the great leader General Custer. The boy made many friends and became excited about the army but was not to sure about fighting against the Indians. This book was well written and I loved the book up till the ending! I would recommend this book to anyone who likes war stories.
Soldier Boy was exciting and wonderfully written.
Soldier boy is the story of a boy named Johnny "The Kid" who joins the cavalry to get away from his manager and some thugs who are trying to kill him because he wouldn't throw a game. Johnny finds himself as a private in Custer's cavalry getting ready for the spring when they will go after the Sioux Indians in the Black Hills. Soon he will be fighting again, this time for his life. I liked Soldier Boy because it gives a personal and realistic view of what being a soldier in Custer's cavalry was like. Also you normally hear that Custer's men loved him, but in this book you learn that his men didn't like him. Soldier Boy gives an inside view of what being in the cavalry was like. It shows that it wasn't all gallantry and riding but it also included things like doing the dishes and playing pranks. Soldier Boy was a exciting and wonderfully written book. From the saloons to Custer's last stand, Soldier Boy is a great book for all ages.
A good book
This book made me want to learn more about the old west and how we fought the Indain wars. It is a historicly acuret book with great details.

A Pain
This book is really not worth getting, unless you liked sad endings. It is very descriptive though and you can learn a lot from this book aout the struggles the main character faces. Yet, I wouldn't waste the time reading this book, again.
Walks Alone

Murphy's Trail-Worth the Ride
I found this book to be a good authentic action packed western. Murphy is tough, likeable and believeable as a New Mexico Sheriff . The author knows what hes talking about as for as guns and horses and it was a good story.I would recomend this book to other western fans and Ill be looking for other Murphy books.
