Gatling

Gatling was a master armorer, a dead shot and an expert in his field-which was death. Armed with the latest automatic weapons from all over the world and paid in gold to test them on living bodies, he was probably the single most dangerous man in the Old West. At his command he had more firepower than a cavalry regiment, and more guts than a Cheyenne war party. He would need all of his skill to take on...THE MISSIONThe Copper Trust was arming the savage Jicarilla Apaches to drive the peaceful Zunis off their land. A mountain of ore was at stake and the Zunis had only one weapon-Gatling. The odds were a hundred to one against him, but Gatling figured it was the Apaches who had better start praying. Peter J. McCurtin was born in Ireland on 15 October 1929, and immigrated to America when he was in his early twenties. Records also confirm that, in 1958, McCurtin co-edited the short-lived (one issue) New York Review with William Atkins. By the early 1960s, he was co-owner of a bookstore in Ogunquit, Maine, and often spent his summers there. His westerns in particular are distinguished by unusual plots with neatly resolved conclusions, well-drawn secondary characters, regular bursts of action and tight, smooth writing. If you haven't already checked him out, you have quite a treat in store.McCurtin also wrote under the name of Jack Slade and Gene Curry.

The Italian Black Hand from New Orleans was ready to join, as was the Sydney Ducks, a group of Australian killers who ran roughshod over the Barbary Coast. When combined with all the other isolated groups of vicious vermin, Murrill would control crime in the U.S. Only Gatling had the skill to eliminate him and his rabble. Only Gatling had the weapons to utterly destroy them all. Peter J. McCurtin was born in Ireland on 15 October 1929, and immigrated to America when he was in his early twenties.

Master armorer, dead shot and expert in death, Gatling tested automatic weapons from all over the world-on living bodies. Paid in gold for his bloody work, he was probably the single most dangerous man in the Old West. For at his command was more firepower than a cavalry regiment and more deadly force than the Grim Reaper. He would need every ounce of skill to take on....THE MISSIONHis baggage was heavy-.37 millimeter Revolving Cannons that spat out death of biblical proportions-and a feeling of guilt that he'd have to use it on a half-trained Canadian militia. But he'd sold his soul to the Colonel for a box of gold and he couldn't turn back. His task was to bring an arsenal of automatic weapons to the métis people, mixed bloods who were planning a full-scale war against the Canadian government. Backed by Irish revolutionaries and the crackpot Annex Canada Committee, Gatling was out to create an international incident that could explode into a World war. Peter J.

In Mexico, the governor of a rebel state had hijacked a shipment of Lee-Enfield rifles and enough ammunition to start a small war. The president of Mexico was worried, the president of the U.S. was worried-Gatling didn't give a damn. But his boss, the colonel, told him to get those rifles back or get another job. Gatling couldn't afford a drain on his gold reserves, so he agreed. On one condition ... Peter J.
