| Publisher Description: From World War I Europe to United States New Mexico, this tale of Germans, the British, cowboys, and Indians grabs you. Based on actual event of the historic raid of Pancho Villa on the United States, Leyton Hanshaw, Jr., with the help of the original Rough Rider himself, Theodore Roosevelt, defends his family and his country against some of the baddest men of the west, saves a former U.S. President, prevents a war with Mexico, and delays the United States' entry into WWI. Eubanks' skillful writing takes us back to New Mexico Civil war events, into the jungle of Cuba with the Rough Riders, and the hacienda of Pancho Villa. His characters are full blown and human. At their best and worst, they are real, and strong, and smart, and cunning. The reader will end this book loving them all, including the villains. |
