In the latter half of the 1800's, James Reavis found a document granting an area 75 north to south, and 250 miles east to west, including Phoenix Arizona, and Silver City, New Mexico, to a soldier named Peralta. It established a plot of land called the Barony of Arizona. Most of the productive mines and land in these states were involved in the claim. With other documents and some convincing, Reavis established himself and a young orphan girl as the Baron and Baroness of Arizona, laying claim to the entire territory within the boundaries of the grant.
He took his case to court with documents, most of them real, but some of them forged or touched up. The Barony was rich beyond his every dream and Baron Reavis-Peralta lived the life of an international Baron until the case was ruled a scam and he went to prison for 2 years and was fined $5, 000. That's the truthIn 2021, someone has revived the grant, claiming all the original grant outlined. This time with courts, anonymity, bullets, and deceit.
Who will win the case: the Federal Government, COVID 19, the anonymous claimant, or the Arizona Governor's Special Investigators led by Les Brown, the man called Tan. That's the story.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Doug Ball

Born in California and raised in Arizona. Grew to love the west at a young age while growing up in a blue collar home. Never knew we were kinda poor until I was 21 and making more money than my dad. Dad and mom were still raising three of my siblings. It was a shocker. I joined the navy after high school to get out of school and promptly went to over 2 years of technical schools. Rode submarines for 20 years and retired.
Went back to school and earned a D. Min. while I pastored a couple of small town churches full of great people. My big dream in life was to be a cowboy and own a ranch. Santa never brought me a horse. At 37 I bought a horse and a ranch and lived my dream. I started writing at 39 and sold a few pieces to Mother Earth News, Countryside, and Arizona Magazine, along with many others. Wrote my first book and quit mailing out that western after 47 rejections.
Nobody ever read it. That western is BLOOD ON THE ZUNI which has all five star reviews to date. Got the itch and kept writing. I recommend GENTLE REBELLION. It is the story of the life I wished I could live for years. I wrote it in my head on many a mid-watch at sea. PS. Sea horses are no fun to ride.
