A telephone call to Senator J. William Fulbright's Washington D.C. office affected a change of assignment for new Warrant Officer Pilot Thomas Butler to Medical Evacuation School. He could not have known how this 'favor' would effect his future and the decisions he would make in combat. With only minor glimpses into the struggles of an African American as a Warrant Officer Cadet during the late 1960's, we are catapulted into the jungles of Vietnam. Mr. Butler presents a rare look into the lives of the men whose task it was to retrieve the wounded from the battlefields and jungles of Vietnam. He tells the story like none other has, very effectively including the writings of a North Vietnamese officer, Captain Trang.
Wells Fargo and Danger Station is a book based on the 1957-1962 television series Tales of Wells Fargo.
The Oregon Territories circa 1850 are home to the Blackfoot, Shoshone, and Crow, among many other warring tribes. The majesty of the untamed rivers and mountain ranges have provided a backdrop to the ever-present conflicts between these proud peoples, but contact with the white man is changing the balance of power in unimaginable ways. Bitter events make enemies of Lame Elk of the Shoshone, tragic in his rise to prominence, and Two Horns of the Blackfoot, reluctant in his call to leadership. Separately, these two warriors must lead their people against a myriad of threats, not the least of which include disease, famine, and almost constant battle. As life continues unabated in the Indians' struggle for dominance, the white man is making deeper inroads into the western United States, with adventurers and criminals seeking their fortunes in a lawless land. Driven into the mountains to escape a manhunt, a falsely accused young man named Corby ends up saving Donovan, the ex-marshal pursuing him. The two unlikely friends travel through the Oregon Territories, where Corby finds he has an uncanny ability with a gun -- and establishes something of an unwanted reputation. "The Lone War Cry" follows these unforgettable characters through numerous hardships and challenges until circumstance links their stories together, driving them to their dramatic conclusions.
This is a story of reality, a western tale of real life. The characters live a realistic life. This story could be true as far as what happens, but it is a f iction western. This is a story that many who read it, would love to have lived it. A simple but true to life story about people who live the good life, in a good town. There is pain and heartache, with some disappointment, but also many good times and good things for them to be thankful for.
Amata, a five year old Comanche child growing up with the determination of becoming a great warrior in her own right. She must learn the lessons chief Aberon, her father, teaches her as well as those taught by the spirit world. All of the lessons learned she must teach in her own way to the children known as the chosen four. These chosen children are able to travel through the spirit world and are a part of both worlds. They were born, raised and trained to do the bidding of the Great Spirit with the very life force of the Great Spirit wilding his mighty hand through them. These four children have destinies to complete as they become the salvation of the Comanche Nation only to be betrayed by one of their own. All that they endured and all they have accomplished seems lost as they embark on the trail of tears forced on them by their enemy. Their strong will and determination at the end of their journey makes one wonder if they will come back and fight again for what they so desperately believe.
Charlie Power has just insured that justice will be served to three
hardened murderers. However, by doing so, he has set the stage for
his own murder trial.
Follow Rachel and Martin as they set out to discover a new land and a new life. The newlyweds encounter a series of adventures on their journey west in 1840, learning much about themselves along the way.
Louis L'Amour's world is built on those dramatic moments when men
and women cast their fears, doubts, and pasts behind them and
plunge into the unknown-into split-second decisions with
life-and-death consequences. Nowhere is that more evident than in
this latest collection of stories set on the American frontier.
Here L'Amour takes us across a bold, beautifully rendered landscape
where strangers may come to trust-or kill-one another; where old
scores haunt new lives and the wrong choice leaves unwitting
victims. Even at the best of times, this is a world in which every
man and woman must be responsible for their own survival.
Set in Indian Territory during the Civil War, "Watie's Wolves" follows the violent adventures of a mixed-breed Cherokee, Jacob Welles, and three boyhood friends who evolve into a special unit of scouts within the famed Cherokee Mounted Rifles led by Stand Watie, the last confederate general to surrender. With an underlying current of tribal factionalism, they participate in and witness the decimation of Indian Territory as the conflagration of war destroys lives and dreams, not the least of which is Jacob's love for Rachel Creech and their hopes for a future together. The loss of friends and loved ones hardens the young warrior's heart and his sense of justice leads him to commit acts that result in his becoming a fugitive. His ultimate salvation is brought about by his Grandfather and unexpected support and protection. Based on historical fact and interlaced with Cherokee mythology and legend, the author, part Cherokee himself, brings to life the struggle, pain, and destruction of the war in Indian Territory. Fans of westerns, Native Americana, and the Civil War will find this evocative novel about an unusual aspect of the Civil War in the West an excellent addition to their library.
