Fire On the Mountain

New York: Perennial / Harper Collins, Publishers, 2012. Reprint. Paperback. New. 181pp. Octavo [20.5cm]. Illustrated wraps. "John Vogelin's land is his life - a barren stretch of New Mexican wilderness, mercifully bypassed by civilization. Then the government moves in. And suddenly the elderly, mule-stubborn rancher is confronting the combined land-grabbing greed of the County Sheriff, the Department of the Interior, the Atomic Energy Commission and the U. S. Air Force. But a tough old man is like a mountain lion: if you back him into a corner, he'll come out fighting.
