A true adventure story set in the vividly-evoked Old West and told through verse and prose poems.

John Clegg was born in 1986 and works in a bookshop in London. His first collection, Antler, was published by Salt in 2012. His poems have been featured in The Salt Book of Younger Poets, Best British Poetry 2012 and Best British Poetry 2013. In 2013 he received an Eric Gregory award.
