"Rich and fascinating," this bestselling western novel features a Civil War veteran who gets caught up in the American Indian Wars ( Washington Post Book World ).
Newly freed from service with the 10th Cavalry, Seamus Donegan joins a party of buffalo hunters as they follow the shrinking herds into the ancient hunting grounds of the Kiowa and Comanche. The presence of the white men ignites a storm of Indian fury and the group is besieged. Donegan and some twenty-seven men and one woman take shelter in a few sod shanties. They hold off over seven hundred braves for five days in the fight at Adobe Walls.
From then on, the U.S. Army would not rest until the Indians of the Staked Plain returned to their reservations. Under the command of Colonel Ranald Slidell Mackenzie, Seamus Donegan rides back to that embattled land as the U.S. Army tracks the tribes of Chief Quanan Parker to Palo Duro canyon-for a bloody showdown that would forever change the face of the West.
Praise for Terry C. Johnston
"The great frontier historical novelist of his generation." ¿Paul Andrew Hutton, Spur Award-winning author of P hil Sheridan and His Army
"Johnston can be considered the king of the Indian wars' fiction writers." ¿John D, McDermott, author of A Guide to the Indian Wars of the West
"The author's attention to detail and authenticity, coupled with his ability to spin a darned good yarn, makes it easy to see why Johnston is today's best-selling frontier novelist. He's one of a handful that truly knows the territory." - Chicago Tribune
