Laramie Holds the Range
Frank H. Spearman's 'Laramie Holds the Range' is a pulsating foray into the rugged landscapes of the American frontier, an homage to the indomitable cowboy spirit. Within its pages, the narrative gallops across the open prairies where cattle rustlers and the tireless vaqueros play out their age-old tussles. With his vibrant literary style, Spearman takes readers back to the early 20th century, an era thick with the dust of cattle drives and the din of burgeoning railway lines. The book is steeped in the cultural lore of the West, underscoring the romanticized notions of freedom and adventure, all while maintaining a keen historical understanding of the period's socioeconomic conditions.

Whispering Smith
Luke "Whispering" Smith is a railroad policeman in frontier-era Wyoming and on a hot pursuit of a notorious gang of train robbers (based upon the actual "Hole in the Wall" gang). But can Smith outwit these elusive and clever train robbers or will they get the better of him? Frank H. Spearman was an American author who was known for his Western books and especially for his fiction and non-fiction works on the topic of railroads. His western novel Whispering Smith–the title character of which was modelled on real-life Union Pacific Railroad detectives Timothy Keliher and Joe Lefors (though the name of the titular hero was apparently derived from another UPRR policeman, James L. "Whispering" Smith)–was made into a movie 8 times.
Held for Orders
"He's rather a bad lot, I guess," wrote Bucks to Callahan, "but I am satisfied of one thing-you can't run that yard with a Sunday-school superintendent. He won't make you any trouble unless he gets to drinking. If that happens, don't have any words with him." Bucks underscored three times. "Simply crawl into a cyclone cellar and wire me. Sending you eighteen loads of steel to-night, and six cars of ties. Blair reports section 10 ready for track layers and Mear's outfit moving into the Palisade Canon. Push the stuff to the front." It was getting dark, and Callahan sat in that part of the Benkleton depot he called the office, pulling at a muddy root that went unaccountably hot in sudden flashes. He took the pipe from his mouth, leaving his foot on the table, and looked at the bowl resentfully, wondering again if there could be powder in that infernal tobacco of Rubedo's. The mouthpiece he eyed as a desperate man might ponder a final shift."
