1907. Running a railroad through the Rocky Mountains was a tough business. The steep arroyos and precipitous canyons of the Crawling Stone country weren't made for steel rails and steam engines. But, a gang of renegade railroad employees wrecking and robbing the trains, spilling cattle, gold dust, and blood all over the dry stone didn't make things any easier. The railroad company knew they had to be stopped so they sent their best man, Smith. Книга представляет собой репринтное издание 1907 года (издательство "New York: Charles Scribner's Sons" ).

Frank H. Spearman

Frank Hamilton Spearman (September 6, 1859 – December 29, 1937) was an American author.

He was known for his books in the Western fiction genre and especially for his fiction and non-fiction works on the topic of railroads.

Although he wrote prolifically about railroads, his actual career was that of a bank president in McCook, Nebraska and did not himself work for a railroad. Spearman was also a devout Roman Catholic convert and held political views best described as proto-libertarian, both of which beliefs are also reflected in his novels.

His Western novel "Whispering Smith" was made into a movie on three separate occasions, in 1915, 1927 and 1947.
