The violent account of one man's rise to notoriety as an infamous gunfighter of the Old American West.In 1846, Nathan Delaney is only eight years old, when he is caught up in the turbulent struggle of the Mexican-American war. Travelling with a troop of Texas Rangers, Nathan quickly loses his innocence and childhood in the harsh, arid wastes of the Texas borderland in a series of brutal skirmishes between the hard-bitten Rangers and their Indian and Mexican foes. The war on the border is every bit as grim and brutal as the landscape it is fought over, and there are acts of savagery and torture on both sides. It is neither a time nor a place for a small boy, and with the Ranger troop surrounded on all sides and greatly outnumbered, Nathan must quickly learn to outgrow the boy in order to survive. Twenty years later, in the aftermath of another bloody and brutal conflict - the Civil War - Nathan is trying his best to put the years he has spent as a Confederate guerrilla fighter behind him. He has arrived in the small town of Taylor's Mill, with a view to settling down to a life of peace and prosperity. Fate, in the form of a beautiful young woman, and an unwanted confrontation with some of the town's rougher elements, conspires against him however, and Nathan is soon forced to go on the run. With a string of Bounty Hunters dogging his trail, Texas seems the ideal place to head for, and once there, Nathan is given the opportunity to range even further by joining the famous Montana cattle drive, led by the legendary Nelson Story. With nothing to look forward to except stampedes, flooded river crossings and multiple confrontations with hostile bandits and Indians - and with a particularly determined Bounty Hunter still dogging his trail - Nathan will have plenty of cause to wonder whether he has made the right choice or not. About the Author: Daniel Cassidy Daniel Cassidy was born and is still living in Liverpool, UK.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. I really was engrossed - the writing is fantastic and the characters come to life pretty quickly where ... By Stephen I was recently commssioned by the author (Dan Cassidy) to paint a portrait of one of his cowboy heroes, Lee Marvin as "Monte Walsh", and he kindly gave me a copy of "Pistol Man" after I discovered he was an author through our conversations. What a lovely gesture. .Now, I'm not much of a reader these days and I'm not a big westerns-fan so I aimed to try and get through at least 3 or 4 chapters so I could at least say to Dan "well done, well written etc", out of politeness I guess (whether it's art, writing, or music, I think if it's done by someone we know, we are always kinder in our criticism). So I prepared myself to get through the first few pages with an open mind and a critical eye heavily-biased in Dan's favour....Within that first paragraph of the opening excerpt from Nathan Delaney's childhood (the main character), I was immediately absorbed and it instantly escaped my mind that I was reading the work of someone I know! WOW! I mean, I really was engrossed - the writing is fantastic and the characters come to life pretty quickly where you subconsciously grow an attachment to them (I liked 'Matthew" the best, if I was in a battle I'd want him on my side). The attention to detail is superb (whether it's historical/geographical accuracies or the description of the weapons used within the MANY battles) and is concise enough to not bore the reader like some novels can when details and scene-setting goes overboard. So, any biased praise I planned to show Dan was soon forgotten, replaced by genuine admiration and gobsmacked-ness (probably not a word but I'm no author!)Ironically, the painting I was doing for Dan was put on the backburner as I committed my time to delve further into the fascinating life and adventures of Nathan Delaney, a man who I never warmed to and even at one point despised him after his thoughtless actions lead to some tragic consequences. So this again was something that really surprised me, I expected the writing to be pretty biased in Nathan's favour but it's not - it's a brutally honest account and an absolutely fantastic read! 10/10 and no mistake! I finished it within a matter of days and I now look eagerly forward to Dan Cassidy's next novel which I will be one of the first to buy for sure. Tremendous writer!Stephen Mahoney
