Buffalo Trail by Jeff Guinn

This is an epic story about life in the old west. Quanah, is a Commanche War Chief, who is trying to help his tribe survive. Cash McLendon is a heartbroken man trying to find his way in the harsh conditions of the west, and a way to win the woman he loves. Along the way we meet Bat Masterson and Billy Dixon and other historical figures. The story revolves around a buffalo hunting gang and an alliance of Indian warriors that includes Comanche, Cheyenne, and Kiowa, and is led by Quanah. What follows is a bloody tale about survival. Guinn has a way of telling a story in a way that keeps you turning the page to see what will happen next. I was given a free copy of this in return for an honest review. I'm not a fan of history, but I enjoyed reading this book
