Description
Col. Mac McKenna's Fourth Cavalry recaptures white captive August Shiltz from the Comanche, only to find August is determined to return to the Indians. McKenna attempts to civilize August and becomes the boy's foster father. But when August kills another boy in a fight, he escapes from Fort Richards (Texas), and when war with the Comanche breaks out, McKenna discovers August is a war leader-and his greatest enemy.
Advance Praise
"It is obvious that Julia Robb did her research as this book is brought to life by her amazing dedication to detail. She takes you back and brings you into the world that The Captive Boy existed. Julia paints a masterpiece with incredible accuracy and the reader walks the dusty path, breathes the hot western air, and experiences each and every move that her protagonist makes. I was entranced and mesmerized by The Captive Boy and any reader interested in history, the west, the coming of age, the struggles of a young boy, or the adventures of a lifetime should read this book. It can be read by any age and will definitely by enjoyed by all."
