Johnstone, mountain man Smoke Jensen sets his sharpshooting sights on an unhinged outlaw who&’s carved out his own kingdom in the West—and declared war on the United States . . . Johnstone Country. Come visit. He calls himself The King. Once a respected professor, he was ruined by scandal. Now, he rules his own &“country&”—an area of western territory where an army of outlaws enforce his laws. Any town he claims as his own must pay &“taxes,&” collected from bank, stagecoach, and train robberies. When he learns that President Rutherford B. Hayes and General William Tecumseh Sherman are venturing into the far west on a tour of the nation, The King devises a plan to kidnap America&’s leaders and expand his empire. But The King didn&’t reckon that Smoke Jensen had already staked his claim on the frontier. Traveling with the president&’s entourage, the mountain man is not about to let this bloodthirsty, evil tyrant endanger his commander-in-chief and threaten American liberty . . . Live Free. Read Hard.
