Frank B. Linderman knew the frontier types who appear in these
robust stories and sketches. A trapper in Montana during his youth,
he stayed on as a publisher, politician, and businessman, beginning
to write in middle age. "The Montana Stories of Frank B.
Linderman," originally published in 1920, still crackles with the
freshness of arctic wind, the pungency of aged whiskey, the impact
of a whip. "In the Name of Friendship" sets up a deadly bluff with
ironic results. "Was Chet Smalley Honest?" shows a good deed in
danger of punishment. "Jake Hoover's Pig" describes a hungry man's
sentimental attachment to a fat porker. "Cranks" is a frontier
precursor of the Odd Couple. "What Followed a Sermon" testifies to
the sobering effect of preaching in a saloon. These and other
stories are filled with rustlers and hustlers, Mounties and
tenderfeet, Crows and Blackfeet, mountain men, prospectors,
bartenders, lawyers, townspeople, and assorted dogs, cats, and
horses.
