Publisher's summary

Preacher + MacCallister = Double the mayhem

Two of the Johnstones' most legendary heroes - the rugged mountain man known as Preacher and the Scottish clan rancher, Jamie Ian MacCallister, here together for the first time - are forced to choose sides in a blood-soaked battle for the heart and soul of a nation divided....

Frontier America

As the father of a young Crow tribesman, Preacher would like nothing more than to see the long-time natives and newly arrived settlers live together in peace. Then, the killing starts....

As a family man and frontiersman, Jamie Ian MacCallister is more than happy to help the officers at Fort Kearny negotiate a peace treaty with the Crow nation. Until it all goes to hell....

This is not the American dream they were looking for. This is a nightmare. A brutal, blood-drenched frontier war that two heroic men must fight and win - or one struggling nation will never come together. For liberty and justice for all....

Narrator

The narrator made me want to sleep! The storyline was good, the narrator did not keep me interested.

This book kept me up all night

I couldn’t put this book down! I’ve been a loyal follower of the Johnstone’s for years, and this book just solidifies that. The story was so gripping and kept my attention rivetted that I couldn’t let go. It was so wonderful to see Preacher and Jamie McCalister together! I can’t wait to see the next offering!

Good story with lots of suspense

It took 13 chapters of listening to realize that Preacher and Jamie McAllister were different people! Although I liked the narrator’s voice, all the male character’s voices were the same. I figured it out but I wished it had been different.

Frontier Favorite

From beginning to end, Johnstone captured my attention for the history of America’s expansion westward. Maybe one day this book will be presented on the big screen as a testament to those who blazed the trail of American exceptionalism.

US Calvary to Mountian Men Contast

Accurately portrays the character strength comparison between US Calvary enlisted men and survival hardened western frontiersmen who learned to interact with native Americans. Learning to survive in wild land has a way of bring us all on to level playing field. Great story. One of the authors best.

An engrossing, exciting story

I loved the story. Action throughout. It kept my interest and I listened/read the book in less than a week. Unlike some, I liked the narration and I think he did an excellent job. I felt the same way about the other books he has narrated. I’d love to meet or talk with the Johnstones. They have written dozens of books and I have found those I have read entertaining. They certainly know a lot about settling the frontier. How do they continue to come up with their ideas and turn them into so many exciting books? It would be a fun lunch.

Turner IS the perfect voice for Mountain Man.

Just finished number two. I'll load up the next ones. I got out of sync, but it's working out okay.
