Warriors : A Novel Of Texas' Last Comanche Indian Campaign

Two young men from two different worlds: One a Plains Indian schooled from birth in war, the other a reluctant warrior driven into uniform by family tradition, the two riding toward a collision course in a deep canyon called Palo Duro in the Texas Panhandle and High Plains. One has everything a man could want; the other yearns for something he cannot have. This is the story of the Red River War, the final major campaign fielded by the U.S. Cavalry under Col. Ranald S. "Bad Hand" Mackenzie's Fourth Division against the coalition of Comanche and Kiowa warriors led by famed Quanah Parker. This historical novel of the four-year campaign tells both sides of the conflict-through the eyes of the Indian warrior called Badger and the young horse soldier named Ned Justine-and the long, winding trail destined to bring the two face-to-face in one final battle on the Texas frontier. It also is a portrait of two vastly different cultures that could never coexist.
