Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Free Range Lanning a Western Story
Eside the rear window of the blacksmith shop Jasper Lanning held his withered arms folded against his Chest. With the dispassionate eye and the aching heart Of an artist he said to himself that his life work was a failure. That life work was the young fellow who swung the sledge at the forge, and truly it was a strange product for this seventy-year-old veteran with his slant Oriental eyes and his narrow beard Of white. Andrew Lanning was not even his son, but it came about in this way that Andrew became the life work of Jasper.
