Riders of judgment

About “Riders of judgment”

Riders of Judgment is a 1965 Western novel by Frederick Manfred, the fifth in his series The Buckskin Man Tales. The book is set in the 19th-century Great Plains and fictionalizes the Johnson County War of 1892 in Wyoming. Manfred conducted original research for the novel, and his portrayal of the events aligns closely with the account in Helena Huntington Smith's The War on Powder River, published about ten years after Riders of Judgment. The novel is part of a series that explores recurring themes through five books. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
