关于此电子书
A powerful tale of brotherly bonds torn asunder by the cruelty of war, from seven-time Spur Award-winning Western author Elmer Kelton.
The Barfield family, Arkansas sharecroppers, are heading west with their sons Jeffrey and Todd. In far West Texas, their camp is attacked by Comanche raiders, leaving the elder Barfields killed and scalped. The younger boy, Todd, is taken captive by the Indians, while Jeffrey manages to hide and is rescued by militia men. Jeffrey is taken in by a homesteading family, while Todd is traded to a Comanchero named January for a rifle and gunpowder.
As the turbulence of the Civil War engulfs the nation, the brothers find themselves caught up in the conflict, even in the remote border country of West Texas and New Mexico, where Confederate sympathizers clash with Unionists. Separated by violence, Jeffrey and Todd are destined to be rejoined by it. Will they meet as friends or deadly enemies?
Many a River is a gripping Western novel that explores the unbreakable ties of family, the tragedy of war, and the enduring power of the human spirit. Elmer Kelton's masterful storytelling brings to life the Old West in vivid detail, creating an unforgettable tale that will captivate fans of Western fiction.
