Set in Indian Territory during the Civil War, Watie's Wolves follows the violent adventures of a mixed-breed Cherokee, Jacob Welles, and three boyhood friends who evolve into a special unit of scouts within the famed Cherokee Mounted Rifles led by Stand Watie, the last confederate general to surrender. With an underlying current of tribal factionalism, they participate in and witness the decimation of Indian Territory as the conflagration of war destroys lives and dreams, not the least of which is Jacob's love for Rachel Creech and their hopes for a future together. The loss of friends and loved ones hardens the young warrior's heart and his sense of justice leads him to commit acts that result in his becoming a fugitive. His ultimate salvation is brought about by his Grandfather and unexpected support and protection. Based on historical fact and interlaced with Cherokee mythology and legend, the author, part Cherokee himself, brings to life the struggle, pain, and destruction of the war in Indian Territory. Fans of westerns, Native Americana, and the Civil War will find this evocative novel about an unusual aspect of the Civil War in the West an excellent addition to their library.
