Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rusty Sabin was born to white parents but brought up by the Cheyenne Indians, who named the redheaded boy Red Hawk. His ability to heal the sick and to make strange magic is widely honored throughout the tribe. But in his twenties, Red Hawk sets out to take his place among white people. When Rusty and his stallion White Horse are nearly at the frontier post of Fort Marston, the river boat he’s riding is grounded, and a man called Bill Tenney comes to his rescue. Rusty doesn’t know much about the white man’s ways—especially a white man like Bill Tenney, a thief and a fugitive. Tenney is only interested in one thing—Rusty’s white stallion, considered sacred among the Cheyennes. Meanwhile Major Marston is determined to come between Rusty and his sweetheart, Maisry, and the Cheyennes do all they can to compel Rusty to return to his tribe. First serialized in 1934, Brothers of the Cheyennes—the second installment of the Rusty Sabin trilogy—cemented Max Brand’s reputation as one of the most exciting and talented writers working in the Western genre. To this day, Rusty Sabin remains an indelible American character, caught between two worlds and simply trying to do the right thing.

These brothers, motivated with two different intents, are experiencing the development of their character while growing. Big Brother, showy and flamboyant, cares only for his image and neglects core necessities. Little Brother, who is humble yet persistent, displays kindness and diligence. Each seed, having themselves planted into the ground, will soon grow, but only becoming what they've sown.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Bent, the son of William Bent, one of the founders of Bent's Fort on the Arkansas near present La Junta, Colorado, and Owl Woman, a Cheyenne, began exchanging letters in 1905 with George E. Hyde of Omaha concerning life at the fort, his experiences with his Cheyenne kinsmen, and the events which finally led to the military suppression of the Indians on the southern Great Plains. This correspondence, which continued to the eve of Bent's death in 1918, is the source of the narrative here published, the narrator being Bent himself. Almost ninety years have elapsed since the day in 1930 when Mr. Hyde found it impossible to market the finished manuscript of the Bent life down to 1866. (The Depression had set in some months before.) He accordingly sold that portion of the manuscript to the Denver Public Library, retaining his working copy, which carries down to 1875. The account therefore embraces the most stirring period, not only of Bent's own life, but of life on the Plains and into the Rockies. It has never before been published. It is not often that an eyewitness of great events in the West tells his own story. But Bent's narrative, aside from the extent of its chronology (1826 to 1875), has very special significance as an inside view of Cheyenne life and action after the Sand Creek Massacre of 1864, which cost so many of the lives of Bent's friends and relatives. It is hardly probable that we shall achieve a more authentic view of what happened, as the Cheyennes, Arapahos, and Sioux saw it.

Book excerpt: "Vor seinem Colt hatte selbst der Teufel Respekt!" (Mark Twain) Der Lieblingssatz des berühmten US Marshals: "Abenteuer? Ich habe sie nie gesucht. Weiß der Teufel wie es kam, dass sie immer dort waren, wohin ich ritt." Diese Romane müssen Sie als Western-Fan einfach lesen! Noch immer stand der Staub über Laramie. Er fraß sich in die verschwitzte Haut, verstopfte die Poren, brannte in den Augen und vergiftete den Atem. Er kam in jedem Frühsommer, dann, wenn der warme Wind von den Bergen zog und sich hier in der weiten Ebene zum Sturm entwickelte. Meilenweit trieb er dann den losen Flugsand vor sich her, der erst in turmhohen graubraunen Böen hoch über die Savanne dahinstob, dann aber urplötzlich wie eine überdimensionale Flutwelle niederstieß und alles unter sich begrub. Für die Stadt bedeutete der Sand-Orkan eine ebensolche Katastrophe wie für die Bergbewohner in den hohen Mountains der Blizzard. Laramie schien seit Tagen in der Dunstglocke ersticken zu wollen. Zuweilen ließ der Sturm etwas nach, die Luft wurde leichter und besser, dann aber kam er, nicht selten in der Nacht, wenn es kühler geworden war, mit erneuter Macht zurück und stürzte sich auf die meist eingeschossigen, an den Boden geduckten Häuser der alten Westernstadt und das berühmte gleichnamige Fort, das schon so viele bittere Kämpfe erlebt hatte. Fünf Reiter hielten, mit eingezogenen Köpfen gegen den jetzt scharf über den Boden gehenden Sturm ankämpfend, auf die alte Pferdewechselstation Lake Hattie zu. Etwa eine knappe Meile nordwestlich vom Seeufer lag die aus einem winkelförmigen Bau bestehende Overlandstation, die der graubärtige Stationsmaster Ben Miller zu versorgen hatte. Miller war ein Mann Anfang der Sechzig, vierschrötig und schweigsam wie ein Indianer. Ein schweres Schicksal lag hinter ihm. Er war Engländer und Mitte der fünfziger Jahre mit seiner siebenköpfigen Familie hierher in dieses Land gekommen. Bei einem Indianerüberfall am Rande Cheyennes waren seine Frau und sein jüngster Sohn ums Leben gekommen. Der Vater mit den fünf mutterlosen Kindern schlug sich mehr schlecht als recht durchs Dasein. Oft hatte er den Tag verwünscht, an dem er den Plan gefaßt hatte, in die ›Neue Welt‹ zu gehen, die ihm doch nur Unheil gebracht hatte. Der Bürgerkrieg nahm ihm zwei seiner vier Jungen weg, und Suzan, die einzige Tochter, wurde auf dem Treck von Cheyenne hier ins weite Land nach Westen hinüber bei einem Bandenüberfall so schwer verletzt, daß der völlig niedergeschlagene Vater sie zurück zur Stadt in ein Hospital bringen mußte, wo sie noch drei Jahre litt, ehe auch sie ins Grab sank. Allein mit seinen beiden Söhnen Jim und Jake zog Miller wieder nach Westen. Dreieinhalb Meilen vor Fort Laramie wurden die Millers, die den Rest ihrer Habe auf einem kleinen ächzenden Planwagen mit sich führten, wieder überfallen. Ben Miller kämpfte wie ein Löwe; da wurde sein Sohn James schwer verletzt. Miller sprang um den Wagen herum und zerrte ihn zurück aus dem Bereich der Kugeln.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Plains tribe that subsisted on the buffalo, the Cheyennes depended for survival on the valor and skill of their braves in the hunt and in battle. The fiery spirit of the young warriors was balanced by the calm wisdom of the tribal headmen, the peace chiefs, who met yearly as the Council of the Forty-four. "A Cheyenne chief was required to be a man of peace, to be brave, and to be of generous heart," writes Stan Hoig. "Of these qualities the first was unconditionally the most important, for upon it rested the moral restraint required for the warlike Cheyenne Nation." As the Cheyennes began to feel the westward crush of white civilization in the nineteenth century, a great burden fell to the peace chiefs. Reconciliation with the whites was the tribe's only hope for survival, and the chiefs were the buffers between their own warriors and the United States military, who were out to "win the West." The chiefs found themselves struggling to maintain the integrity of their people-struggling against overwhelming military forces, against disease, against the debauchery brought by "firewater," and against the irreversible decline of their source of livelihood, the buffalo. They were trapped by history in a nearly impossible position. Their story is a heroic epic and, oftentimes, a tragedy. No single book has dealt as intensively as this one with the institution of the peace chiefs. The author has gleaned significant material from all available published sources and from contemporary newspapers. A generous selection of photographs and extensive quotations from ninteteenth-century observers add to the authenticity of the text. Following a brief analysis of the Sweet Medicine legend and its relation to the Council of the Forty-four, the more prominent nineteenth-century chiefs are treated individually in a lucid, felicitous style that will appeal to both students and lay readers of Indian history. As adopted Cheyenne chief Boyce D. Timmons says in his preface to this volume, "Great wisdom, intellect, and love are expressed by the remarkable Cheyenne chiefs, and if you enter their tipi with an open heart and mind, you might have some understanding of the great 'Circle of Life.'"
