Excerpt from Dust of the Desert
Roads of men thread the worlds. They thunder with a life flood. They are vibrant with a pulse of affairs. By land and water and air they link to-day to to-morrow. But El Camino de los Muertos (the Road of the Dead Men) is a dim highway leading nowhere but back and back to forgotten yesterdays. Its faint sign-posts once were, vivid in lettering of tears and blood. Its stages were measured by the sum of all human hardihood. Faith, valour, reckless adventuring, thirst for gold, love o' women - these the links in the measuring chain that marked its course through a dead land. And black crosses formed of lava stones laid down in the sand; these abide over all the length of the Road of the Dead Men from Caborca to Yuma to cry to the white-hot sky of slain hopes and faith betrayed in those buried years gone.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, a chronicle of adventure and romance, begins a century and a half ago with the arrival of an Irish soldier of fortune in the deserts of Sonora, Mexico, where he established a vast ranch and founded a powerful dynasty. Exploring the forgotten byways of history, the author traces the entwined destinies of the clan over generations, following their exploits and passions against the backdrop of a wild and unforgiving land. Through wars, scandals, and personal tragedies, the legacy of the founding patriarch shapes the lives of his descendants, revealing the enduring power of blood and the allure of the unknown. Throughout, this book captures the spirit of the Old West, where courage, resilience, and the indomitable human spirit are tested against the vastness of the desert.
