Terrific Coming of Age Western

I loved this book. It's written in that Young Adult style that defines early twentieth century fiction. Today we call it "Disney" style. In fact, it would make a great Disney Movie. A young man feels that to win back his father's respect, he must recover a priceless pearl that is hidden in the handle of one of the first six-shooters. He almost dies along the way, and is later hailed by the Cheyenne as having mystical powers. The struggle to recover the lost pearl leads him through the hardships that eventually mature him. I only wish there was a sequel.
