Lonesome Land is a novel written by B. M. Bower. The story is set in the early 1900s in the western United States, where the protagonist, Billie Prince, is a young cowboy who is struggling to make a living in the harsh and unforgiving landscape. Billie is a skilled horseman and a hard worker, but he is also a loner who has trouble connecting with others. As the story progresses, Billie finds himself caught up in a range war between two rival ranchers. He becomes embroiled in the conflict when he is hired by one of the ranchers to help protect his land from the other. Billie finds himself torn between his loyalty to his employer and his own sense of justice. Along the way, Billie meets a young woman named Helen, who is the daughter of one of the ranchers. The two fall in love, but their relationship is complicated by the ongoing conflict between their families. Lonesome Land is a classic western novel that explores themes of loyalty, justice, and love in the context of the American frontier. It is a gripping tale of adventure and romance that will appeal to fans of the genre.With one of her quick changes of mood she rose, patted her hair smooth, caught up a wrap oddly inharmonious with the gown and slippers, looped her train over her arm, took her violin, and ran lightly down-stairs. The parlor, the dining room, the kitchen were deserted and the lights turned low. She braced herself mentally, and, flushing at the unaccustomed act, rapped timidly upon the door which opened into the office--which by that time she knew was really a saloon. Hawley himself opened the door, and in his eyes bulged at sight of her.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
