Summary

"Arizona Argonauts" by H. (Henry) Bedford-Jones is an early 20th-century story set in the odd desert town of Two Palms, Arizona, where lives entangle around figures like the town mayor, Piute Tompkins, and the puzzling Tom Lee and his daughter, Claire, who incite the townspeople's suspicion. The book tells tales of aspiration, identity, and the temptation of wealth through the rough facts of desert life, revealing the story of Sandy Mackintavers who wanders through Arizona having previously lost his wealth. The opening scenes hint at strange occurences regarding Tom and Claire, while introducing themes of fate and purpose, all enveloped by the tough desert setting.
