""Black Range Tales"" is a collection of stories chronicling the life and adventures of James A. McKenna in the American Southwest over the course of sixty years. McKenna, a cowboy, rancher, and lawman, shares his experiences in vivid detail, from his early days as a young man working on ranches to his later years as a respected member of the community. The book is filled with tales of cattle drives, shootouts, and encounters with outlaws, as well as more personal stories about love, loss, and the challenges of life in the rugged and unforgiving landscape of the Southwest.
