The early 1900s. Sam Wood feels the loss of the frontier; is a witness to change. Raised by his Uncle Gus and Charlie Buck, the Comanche renegade; he finds the land, though changed, is constant.

About the Author
J Arthur Eidson is a descendant of Texas pioneers. He learned of the closing of the frontier through the stories of the old ones. The closing was not only an end of a way of life, but was the end of the wild. Eidson has worked as an ecologist and conservationist for almost 30 years. This is his first novel, and combines knowledge of history, the people and the land, and how each shapes the other.
