Days Gone Dry is a novel written by Frederick Landis and published in 1919. The story is set in the American West during a severe drought that has left the land barren and the people struggling to survive. The main character, Tom, is a young cowboy who is trying to make a living on his family's ranch. However, with the lack of water and grass, he is forced to sell off his cattle and take on odd jobs to make ends meet.As the drought continues, tensions rise in the community as people become desperate for resources. Tom finds himself caught in the middle of a conflict between a group of wealthy landowners who control the only source of water in the area and the struggling farmers who need it to survive. Along with his love interest, Mary, Tom must navigate the dangerous waters of this conflict and find a way to help his community before it's too late.Days Gone Dry is a gripping tale of survival, love, and the struggle for power in a harsh and unforgiving landscape. Landis's vivid descriptions of the West and its people bring the story to life, and his characters are complex and relatable. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, Western fiction, or tales of resilience in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
