Chisholm Trail

the long version

Armed with only a Colt rifle, a Bowie knife, and courage as big as the West, Ten Chisholm - the bold, illegitimate son of frontier scout and Plains ambassador Jesse Chisholm and a Cherokee woman - arrives in the heart of Comanche country with a price on his head. His only crime, loving the beautiful daughter of a powerful New Orleans gambler who has promised her to a wealthy man she hates. THE CHISHOLM TRAIL Now that Ten has returned to the harsh Texas brakes with a team of battle-toughened cowboys and ex-soldiers - and a bow to return to Priscilla and make her his wife - he must round up wild longhorns, word off angry Comanches, and survive treacherous outlaw attacks as he crosses the Red River and sets off on a brazen quest to open a new trail to Kansas on the savage frontier.
