Virtual Book Club - Stories of the American West, Volume I by Daniel Parliman

Barnes & Noble - $6.99

This book has taken more than 70 years to be told. The first part inclu des three western short stories by Rich Roy Thomson (RRT), written before h is death in 1950, and previously unpublished. Two of them are cowboy storie s, the first is called "The Lost Boy Lode" about two teens who are out hunt ing near the mining camp of Aspen, Colorado in the 1890s and stumble across some quartz rock that looks like gold. But trouble ensues, when they share that information with co-workers and family. The next story "The Spoiling of Plateau Sal" concerns a young Colorado cowboy, set in the early 1900s, r iding across country to a job, grabs a meal at a isolated ranch along the w ay, and is asked to ride a horse, which has never been ridden before. The f inal short story takes place outside of Meeker Colorado, where a young man has a small outfit engaged in catching and breaking wild horses, is visited by an older stranger, who overstays his welcome.

Also included in th e book is a detailed non-fiction article by Rich, entitled "The Last Roundu p" which details how Rich and his family, including spouse Pearl "Tommy" Th omson, and sons James and Robert, were pioneers in providing large-scale Wi lderness Trail Rides in western Colorado during the 1930s and 1940s. Also i ncluded is some supplementary information from Robert W. Thomson from the 1 960's in his continuation of the Hunting Camp part of the family business. The last story of the book is "The Last Thomson Hunting Camp" written by Da niel Parliman, in 2022/2023 and details his experiences and impressions as a participant in the 1972 hunting camp by his great uncle, Robert W. Thomso n and related family stories of previous hunting camps of the 50s, 60s by v arious family members and others who participated in those events.
