James McKay, U.S. Army Scout

From the Author of 'WAR PAINT'

After the Civil War...
Having survived four long bloody years of slaughter and horrors, Ex-Confederate Colonel James McKay stakes his hopes on finding a new beginning in the west, but instead finds violence and death. Desperate for a new livelihood, he accepts a scout position for the U.S. Army who aim to capture gunrunners selling surplus Civil War repeating rifles to the marauding Sioux.

By accident, McKay stumbles onto a more dangerous plot involving stolen Gatling guns and renegade tribes. The thrilling search is on for a slippery gunrunner by the name of Wild Bill. McKay is hot on his trail, joining forces with Ezekiel, an old but ornery mountain man with a score to settle.

Saddle up, W.R. Benton gives us another fast-paced, and action-packed tale of the old west.

“James McKay, US Army Scout, is a book about honor. James McKay out Virginians the Virginian with his actions.”
