Too Long at the Dance: The sequel to 'Shortgrass Song'

Caleb Holcomb #2

by Mike Blakely

Mike Blakely again takes us on the trail with cowboy musician Caleb Holcomb. Caleb now becomes embroiled in Wyoming's Johnson County War, the Arapaho uprisings, the West's bloody cattle wars, the great cattle drives, and the wild, lawless land rushes that settled the Indian Territory.

Through it all Caleb finds music, friends, and wonderful women. But will he ever settle down with Amelia Holcomb, his brother's widow, the only woman he's ever loved? Or will he stay too long at the dance?

[Tracey Jones]

This was a hard book to get through, it really dragged on and on. So many side plots, most of them eventually tied in, but it took a long time to get there.
