Kentucky! — Dana Fuller Ross

WAGONS WEST
Violence had become entrenched in an America of Colt .45s and Winchester rifles. In the streets of Chicago, staid Connecticut towns, Kentucky's bluegrass farms and ranches of the West, the bullets ripped through times of peace and war. In the hands of honest men or renegades, guns were part of a rugged nation's past... and now one was pointed at a President's heart.

KENTUCKY! The United States had survived Civil War and expanded West to build a nation from the wilderness. Scarred from that conflict, America felt the pains of growing under President Grant -- then economic turmoil brought ruin to farmers and businessmen alike. Desperate times bred desperate men, and legendary freedom-fighter Toby Holt was charged with finding an assassin plotting against the President's life. Led to the Kentucky hills, Toby rode toward a rendezvous with destiny... and into the arms of a fiery woman whose courage claimed his heart. But deadly guns were aimed at others that Toby loved--from the woman photographer who snapped a picture of the killer, to Lt. Henry Blake, whose secret mission could cost him his family's trust and his very life. Here, in a magnificent story of daring and suspense, is KENTUCKY!
