The Last Hundred, Paperback/Jim Ellis

Descriere

Description It's the 1920's, and Jock Mac Neil sets on a transformative journey from a Confederate serviceman to a Chiricahua Apache warrior and husband. But Mexico and the American Southwest are still dangerous places, as the last Apache strongholds are persisting against the foreign invaders. Hard as nails, Jock receives an unexpected invitation to guide runaways from a reservation to a stronghold in Sierra Madre. Facing both Mexican and American authorities, and the Apache Wars raging around them, Jock witnesses first-hand the terrors of war, and his own transformation from a man of faith to subtle Apache spirituality. Praise for The Last Hundred: "I knew little about this time in America's history, but found this story to be completely gripping. The storytelling is first rate, and Jock is the perfect stand-in for the reader, both observer and participant in the tribes' adventures and heartbreak. Highly recommended." - Amazon Customer"Once again, Jim Ellis weaves a tale that showcases historical times and the people who lived them, this time in the American West. Great stuff." - Amazon Customer
