The Buckskin Line

De: Elmer Kelton

Narrado por: George Guidall

The Buckskin Line tells of Texas' chaotic early years, when a ragtag group of irregular volunteers fought to defend the far edges of settlement from incursion by Indians and frontier outlaws. In time, they would become known as the Texas Rangers.

This is a story of the early days when...

An intense, red-haired young man named Rusty Shannon rides into Fort Belknap on the Brazos River and joins the Texas Rangers. Years before, Mike Shannon rescued Rusty from a Comanche war party and became his adoptive father. Not long ago, Mike Shannon was bushwhacked and killed, and his death still haunts Rusty. Rusty thinks he knows the identity of Mike's killers. But with Texas now in the throes of seceding from the Union, Rusty has his hands full fighting for the law in lawless Texas and for the life of the woman he loves. If that were not enough of a burden, Rusty is also heading for a showdown with the Comanche warrior who killed his family over 20 years ago.

really great

wish it wasn't over, also would like to hear the rest of the story

Great listen!!

Great story that shows not only what the Native Americans did to the whites but also vice versa! In general there were more wrongs committed against the Natives! Very interesting story and excellent performance!❤️‍🔥

lonesome dove style

The book is a very lonesome dove style of the Texas Rangers , It is well narrated as all of George's books are. You can imagine the life of the early Rangers and Frontier .

Lives of the Texas Rangers

I continue to be fascinated by the early years of the Texas Rangers. Indian fighting was always part of the ethos and this book brings to life the struggles of the Civil War as it profoundly changed the lives of frontier Texans

Love the story, the performance, the characters, everything

Excellent story reviews. Everything characters are fabulous much better than any newer other authors. This is the only good author for the last hundred years for this kind of story.
