Buffalo Township

by Lauran Paine

The Cumberland Transportation Company and the SM cattle outfit had been feuding over a right-of-way for years, but until someone deliberately set fire to SM's autumn feed there didn't appear to be much reason to expect a real range war. After that, CTC sent down Leo Bishop, the son of a company executive. And before Leo fairly got acquainted around the countryside, he was in a fight up to his neck with the big SM cow outfit - which was owned and operated by a woman. Leo had a lot to learn, and not a lot of time to learn it. Available only in Western 14.

Lauran Bosworth Paine (born February 25, 1916 in Duluth, Minnesota – 2003 in California) was an American writer of Western fiction. Paine wrote over 900 books, including hundreds of Westerns as well as romance, science fiction, and mystery novels. He also wrote a number of non-fiction books on the Old West, military history, witchcraft, and other subjects.

His apprenticeship as a Western writer came about through the years he spent in the livestock trade, rodeos, and even motion pictures where he served as an extra because of his expert horsemanship.
