Publisher Description: They were a courageous new breed of settlers, seasoned by the Revolution and tempered by the fires of frontier wars, who struck out across a vast continent to win the West. From the Cumberland Gap and Ohio headwaters, they funneled through Kentucky, enduring the bloody massacres of avenging Cherokee and the threat of a Spanish tyranny that forbade them to cross the Mississippi. Somewhere ahead in the shadows of the setting sun was the land where they would forge a legend as powerful as their dreams. Luther Ferris and his two sons (Jonathan and Matthew) move to Missouri to build a dynasty. Life is hard and families divide. Jonathan stays home to help his father and becomes the town marshall. Jonathan must find an outlaw who wears a Silver Spur. Matthew leaves home to live his own adventures and becomes the caretaker of a little girl. An adventure where two brothers, during the western saga, reunite. |
