With this new
historical Western, Larry
McMurtry returns to the genre in which he
created such
memorable characters as
Augustus McCrae and
Woodrow Call. In collaboration with
Pretty Boy Floyd coauthor Diana Ossana, he dramatizes the Cherokee struggle for independence following the Civil War. Ezekiel Proctor and Ned Christie are the last Cherokee warriors, men of legend and history, whose fates are a consequence of such brutal policies as the Indian Removal Act of 1830 and the infamous Trail of Tears. They struggle to find honor in a harsh, violent land under the relentless pressure of white law and broken promises. Every bit as tough as their men, the women in
Zeke and Ned are determined to raise their families and keep the two men alive--whatever it takes. .
