A Tin Cup Trophy
By Tuttle, W. C.
In the scorching heat of Paradise, three cowhands—banjo-playing Hen Peck, poetic Muley Bowles, and boastful Telescope Tolliver—find their monotonous wait for a cookstove upended when three determined Eastern women arrive seeking adventure, wild game, and a taste of the untamed West. What begins as a farcical hunt for mountain goats spirals into chaos, with stolen horses, a bewildered chaperone, and a Piegan squaw who drinks more than she cooks. A rollicking Western tale of misadventure, mistaken identities, and the perils of guiding tenderfooted ladies into the wild.
