Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Rimrock Jones is a vigorous early-twentieth-century Western novel centered on the volatile world of mining claims, boomtown ambition, and desert self-fashioning. Its hero, the brash and magnetic Rimrock Jones, embodies the speculative energy of the American Southwest, where courage, luck, and legal cunning determine fortune. Coolidge writes in a direct, action-driven style enriched by precise regional observation, placing the book within the tradition of Western realism that complicates romance with economic struggle and frontier modernity. Dane Coolidge was unusually equipped to write such a novel. A trained naturalist, photographer, and frequent traveler through Arizona, Nevada, and California, he knew the landscapes, labor systems, and vernacular cultures of the West at first hand. His fiction often grew from field experience rather than distant mythmaking, and Rimrock Jones reflects his familiarity with prospectors, investors, desert towns, and the precarious social order produced by mining capitalism. This book is recommended to readers interested in Western fiction beyond gunfight cliché: a tale of ambition, risk, and character tested by harsh terrain and harsher markets. It will especially reward those who value historically grounded adventure, energetic dialogue, and a shrewd portrait of the frontier as both dream and enterprise. 124 pp. Englisch.
