The Making of Marshal Blackstone - Paperback

by Riano D. McFarland (Author)

At the age of eighteen, Oliver James Blackstone was the youngest deputy marshal in the state of Texas, and as the handpicked recruit of Marshal Andrew Lofton, there was no time to ease him into the position. Fortunately, after years spent working in his uncle Jedediah's gun smith shop, there was hardly a firearm forged by human hands that Oliver couldn't expertly wield.
As Marshal Lofton would soon discover, not only was his new deputy deadly accurate, but he was also unbelievably fast, and with the ruthless Scorpion Hill Gang operating in Marshal Lofton's district, Olivers skills would be tested time and again.
Although the citizens of Texas revered him as a guardian angel, the members of the outlaw gang would come to fear him as the Grim Reaper. But, unlike most gunslingers, Oliver's reputation spread slowly, because by the time an outlaw learned his name, they were already dead.
