The Auction Horse — Dave P. Fisher

Cowboy Comedy at its best... Take Jack, a crusty old cowboy with a wry sense of humor, and pair him with Cleve, not the brightest crayon in the box but always has an idea to make them rich. Put them on a hard scrabble ranch in Winnemucca, Nevada, called the Plenty-o-Rocks. Mix in a cast of characters like Big Billy Bear, Stubb, and neighbor Slim Johnson and you have The Auction Horse. Follow Jack and Cleve through their misadventures: Jack's near death by killer bull in Buttercup; snowed in with windbag Slim in Snow Bound; Cleve's attempt to be a cowboy singer in Cowboy Cleve; hear Jack's spin on Romeo and Juliet in Shakespeare; and learn all about Cleve's champion cutting horse in the title story The Auction Horse. These tales and many more will keep you wondering how these guys ever lived as long as they have.
