Tales from the X-Bar Horse Camp

By Will C Barnes

Tales from the X-bar Horse Camp - The Blue-Roan Outlaw and Other Stories are part of a book of 18 cowboy stories, songs and the odd poem written by a good ol' boy from America's Wild West. California-born author Will Croft Barnes (1858 - 1936), a private in the U.S. Army Signal Corps, was distinguished for his action in the battle at Fort Apache, Arizona Territory in 1881. When Fort Apache was besieged by warriors of Geronimo, Barnes escaped and rode to Fort Thomas. Soldiers from Fort Thomas came to the aid of Fort Apache. For his gallantry, Barnes received the Medal of Honor on November 8, 1882, the citation noting his "bravery in action".
