Synopsis
Excerpt from The Great Cattle Trail
Avon Burnet, at the age of eighteen, was one of the finest horsemen that ever scurried over the plains of Western Texas, on his matchless mustang Thunderbolt.
He was a native of the Lone Star State, where, until he was thirteen years old, he attended the common school, held in a log cabin within three miles of his home, after which he went to live with his uncle, Captain Dohm Shirril, with whom the orphan son of his sister had been a favorite from infancy.
Avon was bright, alert, unusually active, and exceedingly fond of horses from the time he was able to walk.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book plunges readers into the untamed frontier of Western Texas during the post-Civil War era, where the echoes of conflict still reverberate. The story centers on Avon Burnet, a young man coming of age amidst a backdrop of Reconstruction and the constant threat of Comanche raids. The author crafts a vivid portrait of life on the cattle trails, where survival is a daily struggle against the elements, hostile Native American tribes, and the relentless pace of the cattle drive. The themes of courage, loyalty, and resilience are woven through the narrative as Avon faces his own personal trials alongside the larger challenges of his time. Through Avon's experiences, the author explores the historical realities of westward expansion, the complexities of Native American relations, and the enduring spirit of the American frontier. The book offers a glimpse into a bygone era, one where the struggle for survival was a constant, and the clash of civilizations was a reality for those who lived it.
