Publisher's Summary:
On a dark day in April 1865, a band of former Confederate guerrillas slaughtered more than 40 Comanches, most of them women and children. This began a six-month reign of terror along the Santa Fe Trail as Comanche chief, White Eagle, took his revenge. The US Cavalry was assigned the task of tracking White Eagle and his warriors down.
Lieutenant Colonel Ignatius O'Sullivan's orders were to either bring them in or kill them. O'Sullivan, with two companies of cavalry, tracked the Comanches through the mountains for more than six weeks, until....
O'Sullivan took to the trail in July of 1865, and followed them into the mountains along the northern border of Comanche lands. Can he bring the wily chief and his well-armed warriors to bay? Can his soldiers fight the Comanche on their own ground? And which of them will survive the battle?

The Old West Revisited
This book was an enjoyable read, The author managed to make the characters real without dwelling on details about them. It was easy to get caught up in the story. Having personally been in the parts of the country where this tale takes place, I found it even easier to get into the scenes because the writers descriptions didn't conflict with reality as happens with so many other authors I've read. The author managed to maintain the authenticity of the times and characters, something rare these days when so many authors tend to write characters based on the mentality and actions of people today. Many tend to fail to take into consideration a time when things were slower paced and social interactions more limited, this book reflects that time. The book is an easy and enjoyable read. I recommend it to anyone who likes western stories or stories of another time and place.
A spellbinding novel of the old west.
This my third book from Blair Howard involving these characters and I must admit I have grown quite fond of O'Sulivan and Coffin. This unlikely pair of heros complement each other and together make for a fascinating story. Set immediately after The Civil War in the Southern plains of Kansas, New Mexico and Southeastern Colorado as well as in the Colorado Mountains, O'Sulivan leads his cavalry command in pursuit of a renegade band of Comanches. The Comanche Chief proves to be a worthy opponent and surprisingly intelligent. Non-stop action, this gritty novel is a great read. Highly recommended!!
Great book! Looking forward to #4 in the series!
This is a great story of the life on the plains and the men who lived their lives 5here.it shows the brutality of not only the conflicts but also the environment.
