Based on true adventure tales in the lives of two brothers, this story will take the reader back to the Battle of Franklin in the Civil War. Demoralized, wounded and imprisoned, the brothers make their way back to Texas only to find life has dramatically changed. Post-war Carpetbaggers, Yankee martial law and the Ku Klux Klan make their lives unbearable.

As experienced horsemen, the brothers depend on this knowledge to get involved in the cattle business and join cattle drives from Texas to Kansas. Ultimately, their love of family, bonding with former slaves and trust in God’s faithfulness, inspires their perilous trek across the vastness of Texas and the Llano Estacado to New Mexico Territory.
