1st printing. Hardbound. 584pp. Illustrated with drawings by Jim Pratt. Bibliography. Signed by Chisholm. This whole book is a narrative poem about the Indian Territory frontier, "realistically factual and true to the life and times of the thirty year period of the trail, rough in language, rugged in scene, violent in impact. It is for adults with a strong stomach." The bibliography suggests that the author consulted some of the best books on the subject, all of which would make a fabulous western library.
