The Great Turtle Drive — Steve Sanfield

Saddle up and join an entrepreneurial young cowboy and a million dollars' worth of turtles in a twisted tall tale set in the Wild West.  Someone's got to supply the turtles to Frenchy's Gourmet Eating Establishment and Pizza Parlor, where the house specialty is--you guessed it--turtle soup, and our hero reckons it might as well be him.  Soon he's roaming the wide frontier, lumbering turtles in tow.  There's a fortune waiting for him at Frenchy's--if he ever gets there!
