Description
Sundown Slim opens with its hero riding west from Albuquerque in the un-upholstered privacy of a box car, only to wake at Antelope, Arizona, as the freight rumbles on across the mesas. Annoyed at negligent service, Slim rolls and cords his blankets, meaning to leave the car to the base uses of corporate greed and a shipper of baled hay. He finds the door locked since he took possession, hammers on it, and trades compliments with an unseen rescuer.
The door slides back and Slim leaps out to meet, not a bucolic station agent, but a belted and booted figure of another sort. From that comic arrival grows a Western tale of drifters, ranches, and trouble. Readers who like light, good-humored cowboy fiction will enjoy Slim's adventures.
