| Summary | "Rimrock Jones" by Dane Coolidge is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a mining town named Gunsight and follows the protagonist, Rimrock Jones, a rugged and ambitious miner with a fierce determination to reclaim his lost fortune and restore his reputation. The narrative delves into themes of friendship, betrayal, and the struggles of a man driven to prove himself amidst the harsh realities of life in the American Southwest. The opening of the novel introduces us to the quiet yet dusty town of Gunsight, vividly portraying its mundane activities disrupted by the arrival of Rimrock Jones on horseback. The tension builds as Rimrock strides through the town with a bag of ore, indicating his recent discovery that could change his fortunes. He encounters various townsfolk, which highlights his complex relationships, particularly with banker L.W. Lockhart and the manipulative lawyer Andrew McBain, both central figures in Rimrock's past misfortunes. As he converses with them, readers get a glimpse of his ambitious spirit and hints of a fierce determination to regain what he lost, setting the stage for the conflicts and challenges he will face in his quest.
