Rod Miller is author of three books of history (Go West: The Risk & The Reward; Massacre at Bear River: First, Worst, Forgotten; John Muir: Magnificent Tramp) and contributed several articles for The Settlement of America: Encyclopedia of Westward Expansion. He is also author of three novels, two books of poetry, and numerous essays, magazine articles, and book reviews. He is winner of two Western Writers of America Spur Awards and the Westerners International Poetry Award, along with other awards and recognition as a writer.

Durn it-I've long known Rod Miller was a much better bareback rider, poet, novelist, journalist, essayist, reviewer, screenwriter, and general all-around cowboy and storyteller than I could ever hope to be. Now the many momentous moments I first learned about in The Lost Frontier make it look like I need to add biographer and historian to the long list of Rod's astonishing talents. Will Bagley, award-winning author and historian The Lost Frontier is the way history should be written: riveting, involving, and filled with verified facts that make the era of the Old West come alive. Miller is a talented writer and a first-rate historian-a combination rarely present in the same person. Chris Enss, New York Times bestselling Western history author Rod Miller's humdinger of a new book, The Lost Frontier, is a jam-packed roundup of the most overlooked, underappreciated people, events, episodes, and accomplishments-good, bad, and ugly-of the Old West. No dry history here: The award-winning author's subjects are fully fleshed, clothed, and howling for attention! I pity the reader-young or old, history buff or casual page-flipper-who overlooks this book. Give Rod Miller three minutes and you'll sign on for the whole trip, an eye-opening tour through an Old West you only thought you knew. If this is history, make mine a double, barkeep! -Matthew P. Mayo, Spur Award-winning author of Hornswogglers, Fourflushers & Snake-Oil Salesmen
