Stewart Edward White (12 March 1873 – September 18, 1946) was an American author.
Born in Grand Rapids, Michigan he earned degrees from University of Michigan (Ph.D., 1895; M.A., 1903).
From about 1900 until about 1922, he wrote adventure travel books.
Featuring the original cover, this is a great Western, with one of the best ends I ever read:
Quote:
He stood for a moment in deep thought, then began methodically, without haste, to cut loose the thongs that bound the two together.
When the man and the woman were quite freed, he stood for a moment, the knife in his hand, looking down on them. Then he swung himself into the saddle and rode away, straight down the narrow arroyo, out beyond its lower widening, into the vast plains the hither side of the Chiricahuas. The alkali dust was snatched by the wind from beneath his horse's feet. Smaller and smaller he dwindled, rising and falling, rising and falling in the monotonous cow-pony's lope. The heat shimmer veiled him for a moment, but he reappeared. A mirage concealed him, but he emerged on the other side of it. Then suddenly he was gone. The desert had swallowed him up.
