Title: The Spencer Rifle
Author: Jessie Cox
Narrator: Mike Hennessy
Format: Unabridged
Length: 4 hrs and 17 mins
Language: English
Release date: 06-14-17
Publisher: Jessie Cox
Genres: Fiction, Historical
Publisher's Summary:
Just before and at the beginning of the US Civil War, Indian territory was an untamed lawless place filled with Indians, outlaws teamsters, farms, towns folks, and houses of ill repute. The five civilized tribes were slaveholders, but were radically different than their white counterparts. There were strict laws concerning the abuse of slaves and after seven years of servitude the slave was given his or her freedom and given the choice of being adopted by the tribe. When hostilities broke out between the North and the South the Indians joined the Confederacy and fought in the Battle of Elkhorn Tavern at Pea Ridge, Arkansas. My family built and owned Elkhorn Tavern until the State of Arkansas bought it at "fair market value" and donated it to the US Parks Department. I do not consider this work of historical fiction to be a war book, though set in the Civil War era. It is more about the people that lived in those times and their way of life.

The writings of this author always manage to keep me entertained, books that I can't seem to put down. Anxiously awaiting his next book, a huge fan!!!

Great story: good read
Very interesting story. I have always held an interest in Native Indian Culture but not in the Civil War. And although this story takes place with the Civil War as a backdrop, I have since found a hidden desire to read more about the interaction with the Five Tribes, along with both warring side in the Civil War, and the deplorable treatment of the Five Tribes by the US Government.
I enjoyed the Family references by the author and the mixture of his kin with fictional characters. This was a good story and one that can be enjoyed by a host of genre readers.
To the Author Jessie Cox, thank you for writing a truly fun read.
Hoping there is a sequel!
I just finished reading The Spencer Rifle. I read it in one sitting. That was not my intent, but I found that once I began I could not put it down. I found the historical references and colorful cast of characters very interesting and wanted to learn more about them. I do hope there is a sequel.
