The definitive edition.

• Features an extended biography of the life and experiences of Pearl Zane Grey

In the harsh conditions of the Sonoran desert, two men are brought together by what seems to be fate. The younger of the two, a lone gold prospector by the name Robert Burton alias Cameron, had a wild fling with the older man's daughter Nell. 

Jonas Warren is looking for his daughter, pregnant with Burton's child. After some disagreement, the two men reconcile, and Warren learns Burton married his daughter. They find gold, and unfortunately, succumb to a sandstorm but not before Burton leaves the discovery to Nell in a note.

“They’ve got some machine guns, and they’re going to lick the federals sure.”

Richard Gale arrives at the town of Casita with the border with Mexico, becomes a ranger, fights Mexican rebels, and falls in love with his boss's stepdaughter Nell Burton. Nell Burton has serious issues, thinking she is illegitimate and hence fends off Gale's attention. Will their young love bloom against all the odds?
