Dumpy: A Corbett prequel

By Steve Whiteman

Dumpy Fostered out as a toddler to a miserly wheelwright, he wasn't deemed worthy enough for a real name. Uneducated and naive, at seventeen, he snuck away from the hardships of Illinois with not even a dream to call his own. Stumbling into a gunfight between US Marshalls and outlaws, he accidentally becomes a killer and thief himself. With the good and bad both chasing him, he flees through St. Louis to Independence, where he joins a wagon train bound for Santa Fe. On the trail, he learns about death, dignity, and the determination it takes to become a man. Then, there was Texas.
