Texas is under Mexican rule when Chaplin first comes to town. The local "guns" find a lot to laugh at-Chaplin's fine English boots, the tailored suit, the walking stick. One by one, Chaplin wipes the grins from their faces-the hard way.
Giles Lutz, the author, does an excellent job of unraveling the story behind the Fredonia Rebellion. Lutz did such a superb job of research that it is difficult to separate the facts from the fiction. Whether a reader's intent is for pleasure or simple interest in that particular timeperiod of Texas history, the paperback is an excellent choice.
