What happens when a teen's actions result in the murder of his
father? This is a story of a young man's effort to overcome his
mistakes. It is a story of revenge, tragedy, redemption and family
values. But, it is also a story of an adventure a seventeen year
old could never dreamed.----- It is mid 1870s near the East Texas
town of Jefferson. The Red River, with it's upstream natural log
jam, has created a back water bayou that has turned Jefferson into
an inland port and connected it to the Mississippi River and all
points north and south. Commerce flourishes, and so does crime.
---- Seventeen year old Jay Morgan has left his home to seek fame
and fortune. Unfortunately, he has fallen in with the wrong crowd
of similarly disillusioned young men. He gets unwittingly involved
with two brothers and their illegal activities. They are part of an
outlaw gang who's outlaw father says he knows too much and must
join them and participate in their planned bank robbery, "or
else."---- The Nacogdoches Trail, while being mostly fiction, is
based upon a true story and charts the early development of the
timber industry in Southeast Texas.
