Buffalo Trail

Guinn makes lively characters of historical buffalo hunters, and his imaginative take booms like a Sharps .50 as cultures collide across the Cimarron River Guinn's research brings to life the daily lives of the Comanche Few Westerns reach the level of Lonesome Dove, but Guinn's latest is a better, more rambunctious tale than the trilogy's opener. Kirkus Reviews Full of historical notable figures from the Old West, this second volume in Guinn s trilogy not only provides a buoyant narrative but also several lessons in Western history. This title is so well constructed that it could stand alone (for readers new to the trilogy). Guinn skillfully ties his carefully constructed prolog outlining the Massacre at Sand Creek (1864) to a lone female warrior he imagines at the Second Battle at Adobe Walls. Library Journal A grand effort, and Quanah and his bogus medicine man, Isatai, are an entertaining pair.
