Dust jacket has wear to edges and evidence of moisture damage as well. a novel by Norman Zollinger Orphaned in old Mexico and a runaway to the cattle trails of the turn of the century American Southwest, Ignacio Ortiz comes of age in New Mexico's last territorial days, as a rider for Douglas MacAndrew's sprawling D Cross A cattle ranch. Alongside Douglas's errant and brash son Jamie, the young illegal alien struggles to become a full-fledged vaquero an American cowboy. Ripped from his own cultural heritage, never quite assimilated by the vast new world in which he finds himself, Ignacio must make his own painstaking way through life, searching in the tumultuous present for some clue to the forgotten past that haunts his dreams. Against an explosive background of racial tension, the vaquero and his adopted Anglo family-three generations of the embattled MacAndrews clan--work out their destinies in the stark and awesome landscape of New Mexico's Ojos Negros Basin. Ignacio's wide yet discerning eyes take in the paradoxes of an era, as the story moves from Pancho Villa's quixotic sallies, through the drama of the two Great Wars and the first flash of the Atomic Age at Trinity Site, into the second half of the twentieth century. Authentic, vivid, often poignant, Riders to Cibola takes a fresh look at the classic struggle to conquer the raw American West. A tour de force from the pen of a gifted storyteller.
