Multiple Spur Award–Winning Author: "One of the best of a new breed of Western writers who have driven the genre into new territory." — The New York Times For Gage Jameson, the summer of 1873 has been a poor hunt. A year ago he felled sixty-two buffalo in one stand, but now the great Arkansas River herd is gone, like the Republican herd before it. In Dodge City, old hide hunters speak in awe of a last great herd to the south—but no hunter who values his scalp dares ride south of the Cimarron and into Comanche territory. None but Gage Jameson. . . . "Elmer Kelton is an authentic American voice." —John Jakes, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Homeland "A wonderful storyteller." — The Oklahoman "Elmer Kelton does not write 'Westerns.' He writes fine novels set in the West." —Dee Brown, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee
