Virgin Spring is the story of Nic Nichols, a rebellious teenager
from the Midwest who has long had dreams of becoming a rodeo
cowboy. A year before he is eligible for military service in World
War II, he gets a lucky break: his parents send him to Arizona in a
last-ditch effort to encourage him to finish high school. There,
his passion is broncos rather than books, and his penchant for
trouble continues to plague him as he tangles with rustlers,
wrangling, and rodeos. But it is his friendship with an old vaquero
and his romance with a young Apache woman that transform Nic into a
man. Through the legend of Virgin Spring, he discovers the
timelessness of love. This poignant tale evokes both the history
and magic of the Southwest.
"In G. N. Buffington's engaging and strongly written "Virgin
Spring," Nic turns into a cowboy before our eyes ."
-Richard Bradford, Author of the Classic, "Red Sky at
Morning"
"An engaging novel that captures the spirit of a time and place
over which World War II casts its long shadow. Highly
recommended."
-Marc Simmons, Southwest Historian and Author of "Ranchers,
Ramblers, and Renegades" and Others
