Buffalo Gordon On The Plains

Bravo! I did not want this book to end!I laughed out loud and at times was so deeply moved, I cried.While I loved the romance between Nate and Cara, I found the descriptive encounters between Nate and the Plains Indians especially interesting and rousing - I felt as though I was sitting among them in the tipi. Rich in historical detail, this story is engaging and thought provoking.The author has certainly left this reader anxiously awaiting the next installment of this powerful saga.Cheers to J. P. Lewis!
