Description

In the aftermath of the Civil War, Texas’s greatest remaining resource is a vast herd of untamed longhorns—and the men bold enough to drive them north toward the railroads and fortune. Across hundreds of miles of Indian Territory, trail hands face treacherous terrain, exhaustion, violent encounters, and the constant threat of danger from both nature and man. This sweeping Western saga captures the grit, camaraderie, ambition, and lawlessness of the legendary cattle drives that helped shape the American frontier. Rich in historical atmosphere and action, it brings the brutal magnificence of the Chisholm Trail vividly to life.
