Compadres: A Cowboy Story - Paperback

by Paul Pumpian (Author)

Jeff & Will, aged 10 & 11 met on a Southwest Texas ranch in 1892 and quickly became compadres--lifelong friends. As youngsters, it was predicted that Jeff would spend his adult years manipulating money and Will's time would be spent among adoring women.

Pursuing these goals, the cowboys experienced adventures in saloons and bordellos; fought in bloody battles of the Mexican Revolution; survived a hellish Mexican prison; defended Colombus, New Mexico during Pancho Villa's raid on that city and joined Pershing's expedition to catch the elusive bandit.

While their story is driven by adventure and romance, the heart of "Compadres" is the blending of two distinct personalities.
