Summary

"Good Men and True, and Hit the Line Hard" by Eugene Manlove Rhodes is a story set in the early 1900s, following Jeff Bransford, a likable and spirited cowboy in the American Southwest, as he innocently jokes around at a law office.

The book explores ideas of friendship, devotion, and what society expects, all while Jeff uses his cleverness to survive battles of power and lies, staying true to his lively self despite the life-threatening situations he faces.

About the Author

Eugene Manlove Rhodes was an American writer, nicknamed the "cowboy chronicler". He lived in south central New Mexico when the first cattle ranching and cowboys arrived in the area; when he moved to New York with his wife in 1899, he wrote stories of the American West that set the image of cowboy life in that era. He moved back to New Mexico in 1926 and continued to write novels. In 1958, he was inducted into the Hall of Great Westerners of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.
