An intriguing new series following the trails of the Wild West It all starts with a coin, but not just any coin.... In 1835 a dollar can mean life, or the slow death by starvation for a young New Orleans street urchin. When the lad spots the silver dollar in the debris littering his path, he feels it's the luckiest day of his young life. But this coin has a history, and a future that doesn't include the boy. For a while the urchin and the coin's paths will intersect, and the union will spark an adventure the size and scope of which the young man could never have dreamed. But a coin is not meant for keeping. As the silver dollar leaves one set of hands for another owner, the journey continues. From far-flung western frontiers, to the Great Plains, this one coin will touch many lives, a mountain man, a soiled dove, and it will witness unspeakable violence, and events of touching humanity. For many the coin will become their savor, a single silver drop in their empty well of hope. For others the coin is their last earthy possession, a token of good luck passed on to others for new guardianship. Yet, at each new pocket or purse, the scope and breath of the coin's path will astound you. The Silver Dollar is an epic new western action tale like nothing you've ever read before, unique, heartbreaking and packed with the historical details you have come to expect from best selling author, WR Benton.

A new Young Adult Western, by acclaimed Western author W.R. Benton. In Dream Catcher, wiley mountain men Jed and Mule decide to swindle some local Indians by trading doctored-whiskey for beaver plews. The scheme has mixed results, and they wind up rescuing a black man named George. Attempting to stop a brewing war threat by the Sioux, the Army asks the mountain men to embark on a dangerous mission and return two Indian women captives to their tribe on the wild Plains. Unknown to the two mountain men, the native women are the wife and daughter of the Sioux chief, Bull Buffalo. Returning the captives and keeping their own skins intact is no easy task. Having never seen a black man, and due to his ‘raven-color’ skin, the Sioux consider George a buffalo god in human form, and during the mission to broker peace, George discovers a side of himself that he was unaware existed. Mule becomes emotionally invested in the well-being of both the Sioux captives and eventually forms a romantic connection to one of the women. The action is non-stop as the two mountain men join forces with the Sioux to battle a group of Buffalo-hide hunters set to slaughter the herds, no matter the cost. Suitable for Ages: 14 and up CONTENT CONTAINS: realistic depictions of frontier violence and death. Keywords: Hawken,Sioux,buffalo,spirit guide,the people,mountain man,knife
