Description
Excerpt from The Quirt and the Spur: Vanishing Shadows of the Texas Frontier
And there is much that is interesting in the telling, too, notwithstanding my friend the critic may not find, in the warp and woof of the story, the weaving of a narrative that he can pronounce all wool and a yard wide. I will be content if the few remaining frontier men and their descendants can unravel a thread or two that will prove interesting reading.
In the fire light when the embers glow, I see the vanishing shadows come and go, Peopled with the figures I once knew; Fancy figures now - farewell - adieu!
