In the blazing deserts of Sonora, the rustlers Bull Perrin, Jake Evers and Sliver Smith have turned an abandoned mine into a fortress and other men’s horses into a living. Bull’s brute strength, Jake’s gambler’s cunning and Sliver’s cowboy grit have kept them one step ahead of the American rangers and the Mexican revolutionary chiefs alike. But when the border closes behind them and their luck runs dry, the Three ride deep into Chihuahua: a land of burned trains, marching armies, ruined haciendas and the dreaded Colorados, where a man’s life is worth less than a good horse.
What they find there will test every rule of the outlaw code. A desperate rescue in the desert draws these hard-bitten rogues toward the vast Hacienda de los Árboles and its spirited young mistress, Lee Carleton, and into a fight far bigger than any cattle raid. Can men branded as bad find a reason to be better? And what will the call of the old life cost them?
Written by English-born Herman Whitaker, a writer who knew Mexico first-hand and dedicated this novel to his friend Jack London, Over the Border (1917) blends rollicking frontier humor, breathless chases, tender romance and the harsh realities of the Mexican Revolution. Its gruff, unforgettable anti-heroes inspired two Hollywood films, including John Ford’s silent Western 3 Bad Men (1926).
