The Making of Marshal Blackstone

By Riano D. McFarland

At just eighteen, Oliver James Blackstone becomes the youngest deputy marshal in Texas-a handpicked recruit thrown into a world where hesitation can get a man killed. Under the stern guidance of Marshal Andrew Lofton, Oliver must learn the law, the land, and the brutal truths of frontier justice faster than any young man should.
Armed with the skills he forged in his uncle Jedediah's gunsmith shop, Oliver quickly discovers that the badge is more than metal-it's a burden, a promise, and a target. Outlaws test him. Townsfolk doubt him. And the frontier itself seems determined to break him before he ever earns his place.
But as danger closes in and loyalties are tested, Oliver begins to understand what truly makes a marshal: courage, discipline, and the willingness to stand alone when no one else will.
The Making of Marshal Blackstone is a gripping, character-driven Western about the forging of a legend-a young man shaped by hardship, guided by honor, and destined to become one of the most respected lawmen on the American frontier.
This book is ideal for those who enjoy classic Westerns, stories of coming-of-age on the frontier, and the enduring resilience of Louis L'Amour.
