About this listen

Framed for murder, Dewey "Mac" McKenzie is running for his life. Though Mac's never even made a pot of coffee, he talks his way onto a cattle drive heading west as a chuckwagon cook. Turns out he has a natural talent for turning salt pork and dried beans into culinary gold. He's as good with a pot and pan as he is with a gun, which comes in handy on a dangerous trail drive beset with rustlers, hostile Indians, ornery weather, and deadly stampedes.

Mac can hold his own with any cowboy twice his age. At least until the real showdown begins . . .

Trail hand Deke Northrup is one mean spit in the eye. Before long, he's made enemies with all his men. When Mac learns that Northrup is planning to double-cross the herd's owner, he stands up to the trail boss and his henchman. He might be outgunned and outnumbered, but Mac's ready to serve up some blazing frontier justice with a healthy helping of vengeance . . .

Entrancing

The chuckwagon trail, although a somewhat predicable storyline, grabs listeners at every turn. A true coming of age story on the trail. It’s worth every minute.

Danny Campbell delivers!

An interesting tale of a wandering soul who ends up as a cook on the Chuckwagon Trail after falsely being accused of murder. While there’s a lot of interesting action, the story meanders like the trail itself and forgets some key points along the way. The ending was a solid one, if a little rushed. The Audible version narrated by Danny Campbell is definitely worth a listen as Mr. Campbell has a great voice for the genre.
