In reading this book, you can expect to meet some important people.  Among them, cattle- kings and a one-legged cowboy, zucca meloneers and bootleggers, sod-busters and fruit-leggers, gold feverists and mischievious missionaries, and a whole potpourri of other characters who tumbled out of the mountains, into the only desert valley in Canada, and managed to survive, and in some cases, flourish.
