"Drag" Harlan by Charles Alden Seltzer is a novel written in the early 20th century." The story is set in a harsh desert landscape and follows the adventures of the titular character, Drag Harlan, who is a rugged and capable rider caught up in a world filled with danger and outlaws. As the narrative unfolds, it introduces themes of reputation, conflict, and survival in the unforgiving environment of the American West. "The opening of the novel presents Drag Harlan as a solitary rider traversing the desolate desert, conveying a sense of foreboding and introspection." As he navigates the sand dunes on his black horse, Purgatory, he reflects on the threat of danger from rival factions and the possibility of Apache attacks. The narrative establishes Harlan's inner strength and familiarity with the harsh setting, hinting at his skilled prowess with weapons. This initial chapter sets the tone for a tale rich in conflict and exploration, as Harlan encounters adversaries and on a subsequent ride, investigates gunshots that may indicate further trouble, suggesting the unfolding drama that lies ahead.
