Devil Wire

By Cameron Judd

Book Overview

It would change the West forever: the spurred fence wire that separates one man's range from another and leaves some cut off from the land they call their own. Montana newcomer Jim Hartsford sees that some folks are all riled up about the barbed wire fencing; he knows that night riders are cutting fences and intimidating the ranchers who put them up. But Jim is determined to stay and start a new life of his own--until one man's stubbornness touches off a fight and the wrong kind of men ride onto the range. Suddenly the fight over barbed wire is turning murderous--and old grudges are coming vividly to life.

Barbed Wire

In 1884 some ranchers were using barbed wire to fence their land keeping their cattle controlled for special breeding purposses, as well as keeping thier own grass and water for themselves. Some of the original settlers claimed all of the land because they were first. Not buying the land but forcing themselves onto the land of others, sometimes by cutting the wire and hiring thugs with guns if necessary. Jim Hartford a newcomer sees his ranching brother murdered by such thugs and vows to do in these terrable men. Cameron Judd is a fantastic writter.
