The Vanishing Raiders is a quick read and covers an interesting time period. The 1920s were a bridge from the days of the wild west to the beginnings of modern day law and order. These stories often deal with relations between the Indians and the whites with issues of trust, prejudice and the importance of standing up for what is right. My favorite was the novella length story that is a coming-of-age story about a young man who comes out west to work for his uncle only to find his uncle isn’t the upstanding honest man that he makes out to be. As in all short story collections, I preferred some of the stories over others but they were all well written and the stories felt authentic and real.½
