Top of the line real west story around the war against Santa Ana.
A rip-roaring historical novel about the Texas revolution of 1835-1836 in the tradition of Mark Twain and LITTLE BIG MAN. It's the story of Son Holland and Hugh Allison - two prison escapees from Louisiana - and their whirlwind trip into Texas territory where they collide with more fascinating characters and adventure than they could have imagined possible.

As usual, Burke has written a great story, and Will Patton has done a great job as narrator.
I love James Lee Burke's descriptive writing and this one was a little different from his other books. I love Texas and found his story about that time in history very interesting.
