I've been a fan of the Sackett series of novels by Louis L'Amour when I first read them as a teen. This particular book in the series centers mostly around Tell Sackett, gold, a newly established town, his bride-to-be Ange and an assortment of bad guys after Tell and his gold. It's a pretty straightforward western told in the typical L'Amour style but that is what I like about his novels. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0553276840, Mass Market Paperback)

William Tell Sackett had followed a different path from his younger brothers, but his name, like theirs, was spoken with respect and just a little fear. Where Orrin had brought law and order from New Mexico to the plains of Montana, backed up by the gunfighting talents of his brother Tye, Tell Sackett's destiny drew him to Texas after he had to kill a man. There, in the high, lonesome country, he came upon a vein of pure gold. All he'd wanted was enough to buy a ranch, but he soon learned that gold had ways of its own with men.
