Rhodes, Eugene Manlove: Copper Streak Trail. v1. 20 Oct 2013
Eugene Manlove Rhodes (January 19, 1869 – June 27, 1934) was a writer who was nicknamed the "cowboy chronicler".
Rhodes was born in Tecumseh, Nebraska. He moved to New Mexico with his parents in 1881 and "fell in love" with the state. By age sixteen, he was an accomplished horseman and stonemason and road builder. He helped build the road from Engle, New Mexico, to Tularosa, New Mexico. Excerpt The stage line swung aside in a huge half-circle, rounding the northern end of the Comobabi Range and swinging far out to skirt the foothills. Mr. Peter Johnson had never been to Silverbell: his own country lay far to the north, beyond the Gila. But he knew that Silverbell was somewhere east of the Comobabi, not north; and confidently struck out to find a short cut through the hills. From Silverbell a spur of railroad ran down to Redrock. Mr. Johnson's thought was to entrain himself for Tucson. This work is assumed to be in the Life+70 public domain OR the copyright holder has given specific permission for distribution.
