Title: Wild Drums Beat
Author: F. Van Wyck Mason
Cover artist: Richard Cardiff
Yours for: $7
Best things about this cover:
- "Uh ... he was like this when I found him."
- "Shhh. Be vewy, vewy quiet. We're hunting wabbits..."
- Real men make snow angels "Indian-style."
- Margery made the rather large mistake of trying to ride the Black Horse of Death sidesaddle.
Best things about this back cover:
- "Renegade trapper" would look great on a business card.
- Random trivia: Googling ["scalp-hungry"] returns 4100+ hits. So ... it's an adjective with a life beyond this cover.
- Remember when men's courage and women's love could solve world problems? And now look at us. Lousy Obama.
