by W. C. Tuttle
In the remote mining country of Sleeping Creek, three eccentric frontiersmen pride themselves on keeping only the fiercest kind of companions. But when timid, tidy Bantie Weyman acquires a pet of his own, his friends’ swaggering notions of courage and “man-sized” animals are put to uproarious test. W. C. Tuttle’s comic frontier tale delivers a lively clash of wilderness bravado, practical jokes, and backwoods absurdity.
