|  | Walker's Crossing by Amy Crehore, Phyllis Reynolds Naylor, Tom Wopat
Ryan's biggest wish in the world is to become a cowboy at his dad's ranch in Wyoming. When his dad isn't able to head the ranch because of an injury, Ryan finally has his chance to grab hold of the reins, and he's so excited, nothing can stop him! But there's a problem. His older brother, Gil, a member of a militia group, starts talking about how minorities might be taking over their land, and they risk losing the ranch. Ryan's not sure Gil is right, but he's worried about the ranch. And the whole town is divided in two: the people who believe the militia vs. the people who don't. Where does Ryan stand? Will his dream of becoming a cowboy on his dad's ranch disappear? AUTHOR: Amy Crehore, Phyllis Reynolds Naylor, Tom Wopat

 | Tom Horn by Jay Monaghan, Larry D. Ball
The last great folk tale of the last American frontier - that`s how Jay Monaghan describes the crimson career of Tom Horn, defender of property rights, soldier of fortune, range detective, professional killer. Tom Horn, who had chased after Geronimo and ridden the trains as a Pinkerton operative, was drawn to wherever the action was - ultimately to Wyoming as a hired gun for the cattle barons. Finally he went too far - and paid at the end of a rope in 1903. For years afterward, whenever a man was found murdered on the high plains, people said, Somebody tom-horned that fellow .
