It just didn't figure. Young Boone was decent and square. Yet the man he called "father," Jawbone Smith, was a drunken, conniving horse thief. Then one day Boone learned that Jawbone wasn't really his dad, and that raised a different sort of problem - now Boone had to know, who was he? Breaking away from his outlaw apprenticeship with Jawbone was tough enough, but not half as dangerous as making the townspeople accept him as a decent citizen. Available only in Western 14.

He carried a message in his Colt that men who crossed him never heard twice. Bullets sprayed the pitch-black night and Boone dove headlong into the roaring river. As he surfaced, a man rushed out of the dark and jumped in after him. It was the killer. Boone fought his way to the far bank. When he finally reached it, his insides turned to ice. Nothing but a steep, sheer wall of wet clay loomed in front of him. And the killer was closing in from behind.

The ranch had some kind of curse on it - all the owners had died violent deaths at the hands of unknown killers. Not even this would stop Tad Addison now that he had the chance to buy a place and start his own cattle empire. Addison was tough, but before it was all over, he would have to fight for every inch of that dark and bloody ground.

Walt Coburn’s father pioneered in Montana Territory, joined the Vigilantes who chased road agents, and eventually built up one of the biggest cow outfits in the young state. The Circle C Ranch spread over thirty thousand acres in northern Montana, near the town of Malta. Walt is rather small for age fourteen—only “stirrup high” to his pony Snowflake—when he works on the Circle C and learns a lot from the tough cowboys, and from his own scrapes and falls. His summer vacation from school increases in excitement when Kid Curry and other members of the Wild Bunch loom on the horizon. Stirrup High conveys all the know-how and atmosphere of roughing it on a ranch in 1903.

Coburn was born in White Sulphur Springs, Montana Territory, the son of Robert Coburn Senior, the founder of the noted Circle C Ranch.
Coburn served in the military in the First World War. He later spent time as a cowboy and a surveyor, before becoming a full-time writer in the 1920s. Coburn began his career with Western stories in general fiction pulp magazines such as Adventure and Argosy.
Later Coburn moved on to pulps specializing in Westerns, including Western Story Magazine, Lariat Story Magazine, Ace-High Western and Frontier Stories.
He often wrote for the Fiction House pulp magazines Dime Western and Star Western who promoted Coburn as "the Cowboy Author". Coburn was enormously prolific.
Flanagan states Coburn wrote almost two million words of fiction over a thirty year period. Coburn was so popular that eventually, two pulp magazines - Walt Coburn’s Western Magazine and Walt Coburn’s Action were issued, consisting mainly of reprints of Coburn"s work.
After the pulps ended in the 1950s, Coburn switched his focus to writing paperback originals.
Coburn was a devout Christian. Coburn claimed, in his posthumously published autobiography Western Word Wrangler (1973) that God had chosen him to spread the Christian message through his fiction.
