Black Wind, Arizona is torn apart with prejudice and hatred, fueled by the greed of a ruthless town boss and his hired gunslicks. A nearby colony of Chinese immigrants, the hapless victims of violence, turn to Clint Adams for help. A lovely Oriental enchantress persuades him to join her people-and to share her bedroll. So The Gunsmith will train the Chinese laborers in the art of Western warfare, until he discovers he has his own score to settle with the wild town.
There are a few mysteries that take a while to figure out but the ending is extremely satisfying.
On the cover of these books is Clint Adams. On the later editions he has a scar. You learn in this book where he got that scar.
You learn a little about Clint as a law man and where.
You see a life changing event that made him who he is today.
I really want to see what happens to the community after he left but that's just one of those things you don't get to come back and visit. Part of these stories is just letting go of people, places and things and moving on to the next adventure.
I read this book way back when it was originally published and remembered liking it. Now, reading all these years later, I still think this is a very good book. It has great characters, lots of action, fast paced and it's very well written. I highly recommend this book.
