Border War (A Gatling Western #3)

by Jack Slade

Overview

Master armorer, dead shot and expert in death, Gatling tested automatic weapons from all over the world-on living bodies. Paid in gold for his bloody work, he was probably the single most dangerous man in the Old West. For at his command was more firepower than a cavalry regiment and more deadly force than the Grim Reaper. He would need every ounce of skill to take on....
THE MISSION
His baggage was heavy-.37 millimeter Revolving Cannons that spat out death of biblical proportions-and a feeling of guilt that he'd have to use it on a half-trained Canadian militia. But he’d sold his soul to the Colonel for a box of gold and he couldn't turn back. His task was to bring an arsenal of automatic weapons to the métis people, mixed bloods who were planning a full-scale war against the Canadian government. Backed by Irish revolutionaries and the crackpot Annex Canada Committee, Gatling was out to create an international incident that could explode into a World war.

About the Author

Peter J. McCurtin was born in Ireland on 15 October 1929, and immigrated to America when he was in his early twenties. Records also confirm that, in 1958, McCurtin co-edited the short-lived (one issue) New York Review with William Atkins. By the early 1960s, he was co-owner of a bookstore in Ogunquit, Maine, and often spent his summers there. His westerns in particular are distinguished by unusual plots with neatly resolved conclusions, well-drawn secondary characters, regular bursts of action and tight, smooth writing. If you haven't already checked him out, you have quite a treat in store.
McCurtin also wrote under the name of Jack Slade and Gene Curry.
