About the Author British writer Ridgwell Cullum (1867 – 1943) wrote a large number of adventure novels usually set in remote regions of the United States or Canada. He joined a gold rush in the Transvaal in South Africa and later moved to another gold rush in Yukon in north-west Canada before spending a few years cattle-ranching in Montana, USA. His first novel The Devil's Keg, set in Alberta, Canada, was published in 1903. After its success he settled in Britain and became a full-time writer. Several of his novels were made into Hollywood films.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Excerpt from The Night-Riders: A Romance of Early Montana Forks Settlement no longer occupies its place upon the ordnance map of the state of Montana. At least not the Forks Settlement - the one which nestled in a hollow on the plains, beneath the shadow of the Rocky Mountains. It is curious how these little places do contrive to slip off the map in the course of time. There is no doubt but that they do, and are wholly forgotten, except, perhaps, by those who actually lived or visited there. It is this way with all new countries, and anywhere from twenty to thirty years ago Montana was distinctly a new country. It was about '85 that Forks Settlement enjoyed the height of its prosperity - a prosperity based on the supply of dry-goods and machinery to a widely scattered and sparse population of small ranchers and farmers. These things brought it into existence and kept it afloat for some years. Then, it gradually faded from existence - just as such places do. When John Tresler rode into Forks he wondered what rural retreat he had chanced upon. He didn't wonder in those word, his languages was much more derogatory to place than that.
