"Bring Me His Ears" by Clarence Edward Mulford
"Bring Me His Ears" by Clarence Edward Mulford is a novel set in the early 20th century, likely in the 1920s. This Western tale revolves around a group of characters navigating the dangers and intricacies of frontier life, with a focus on themes of loyalty, danger, and the adventurous spirit of the American West. The narrative introduces key figures such as Tom Boyd, a plainsman with a conflicting sense of identity, and
Ephriam Schoolcraft, a less-than-reputable horse dealer, as they become embroiled in a tense plot involving revenge and survival. The opening of the novel establishes a vivid atmosphere in St. Louis during the 1840s, following Schoolcraft and his Mexican companion, Pedro, as they search for the elusive Tomaz Boyd. Their mission is fraught with peril; they are under orders from the cruel Governor Armijo to retrieve Boyd, who has crossed paths with him in a humiliating encounter. Schoolcraft's disdain for his task contrasts with Pedro's anxious compliance, setting up an engaging dynamic. As tensions rise, the story transitions to Boyd, highlighting his character's strength and determination against the backdrop of merciless rivalries and the unforgiving wilderness of the time.
