"Heel-fly and the Wily Wapiti" and other Wyoming Tales is Wyoming native Bill Jones' first short story collection. Meet the likable, but pesky, "Heel-fly" in one of his favorite haunts, the Bull Chip Saloon. Ride and hunt the wild country of northern Wyoming with a top hand who's "been there." Travel with the brash young cowboys who hit the local rodeos in the 1940s and 1950s. Nod your way out of the chute on a bronc and smell the arena dirt as you land headfirst. Remember the hay fields and sunsets and the girl back home as you fly behind German lines in the WW II story, "Hell if I Know." Bill draws from the rich variety of real characters, the mountains and prairies, the tall timber and short sage of the Wyoming that he worked so long and knows so well.
