To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The sky was still overcast the next morning, but the wind had died down and no more snow fell. During the blizzard, the wind had scoured the flatter terrain so that only an inch or two of snow remained on it. The white stuff had piled up in deep drifts, though, against rocks and other barriers. It had drifted against Jim Fowler’s body during the night and eventually spilled over it, so that now the corpse appeared to be a long, white, low mound about fifty feet from the camp. Fowler had made it ...that far before collapsing. Morgan went out and brought in the body, dragging it by its heels. Abel Dean glared at him in hatred as he left Fowler’s body sprawled under the bluff next to Hyde’s corpse. “Damn it, at least you could bury them!” “Or you can, if you want to try to dig a grave in this cold ground with your fingers,” Morgan said. “We didn’t bring along a shovel.” Dean frowned. “Well, it just don’t seem right to leave them for the wolves.” Bearpaw said, “Wolves have to eat, too.

It was not shakespeare who first saif that "rvenege is a disch best served cold" My recollection is that it was Eugene Sue, the author of "The Wandering Jew", and "The Mysteries of Paris". I have a first edition of each of these, but I think I read one time that this dictum was mentioned in another of his books, the name of which I don't recall.. He was a very "strong" writer, highly interesting and very descriptive in his texts..

Why are so many prostitutes of the most degraded kind in Johnstone's stories with prominent roles. The "sob" stuff is very patently false . It damages the story. The westerners at that time must have virtually all suffered from Sexual disease and those who died early (that was most of them ) would otherwise have passed on from syphilis . These inane sexual side-turns distract for the story itself, they are all or sticky or lachrymose, in the crudest and least subtle manner. One can even foretell what comes next or even a couple of chapters further on. All the "badmen" seem to be able to survive 2-3 bullets to vital spots without impairing their lethal objectives.
