The Texans — Lee Davis Willoughby

They came to conquer the vast, open spaces, to brand their rough-hewn honor on a hard and lawless land.

JASON BRISCOE, Custer's Comanche scout, drove his longhorns north on the dangerous trail to Abilene, determined to forge an empire and a dynasty to bear his name...

PRINT VARNER, soldier-cowboy, seized opportunity with bloody hands: other men's horses, cattle, wives were his for the taking. What he couldn't steal, he'd destroy...

TAMAR SWANSON, the woman they both wanted, the brazen beauty torn between pride, passion and the stake that was hers alone...

From wild Indian country to the dusty cattle trails, from Civil War to the battle for a savage new frontier, they wrote a legend in blood and passion...the legend that gave Texas its glory and its fame.
