James McKay, Army Scout by W.R. Benton Ebook for Kindle Now Shipping

PEARL, Miss. - April 9, 2013 - PRLog -- Author W.R. Benton has just released the ebook version of his second Western fiction title, "James McKay, U.S. Army Scout". This book takes place just after the Civil War and features James McKay, a former Confederate officer now turned U.S. Army Scout.

The tale involves gunrunners selling surplus Civil War repeating rifles to the marauding Sioux.

McKay is hot on his trail, joining forces with Ezekiel, an old but ornery mountain man with a score to settle. Saddle up, W.R.
