The Civil War was over, but for Manson Sherrill Jolly, the fight had just begun.
Returning to his home in Anderson County, South Carolina, Manse found his world in ruins-his family broken, his land occupied by Yankee soldiers, and his people living under the boot of Union rule.
Seven Jolly brothers went to war.
Only two came home.
Manse swore an oath of vengeance, carving a bloody path through the Reconstruction South, striking fear into the heart of every bluecoat that dared cross his land. But when the walls closed in, he rode west-into the untamed wilds of Texas, where bounty hunters, Union marshals, and outlaws all vied to be the one to claim his $20,000 bounty.
And when General George Armstrong Custer himself takes up the hunt, Manse must make one final stand-a fight not for survival, but for legend.
Inspired by true events, The Last Ride of Manse Jolly is a brutal, action-packed Western about loyalty, vengeance, and a man too wild to be tamed, too dangerous to be caught, and too fearless to be forgotten.
Some men fight for a cause. Some men fight for revenge.
Manse Jolly fought because it was all he had left.
