5.0 out of 5 stars
A Comanche "Jimmy Chee"?,
By Fairlee E. Winfield "Author of BUFFALOed 2009... (Boulder, Colorado) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Killstraight: A Western Story (Five Star First Edition Western) (Hardcover)
I had great fun reading this book that is the story of an early "Metal Shirt, police" Daniel Killstraight. Killstraight returns to the Comanche reservation from the Carlisle Industrial School where he was taught to be a white man. Problem is, he's not. He arrives home just in time to see his boyhood friend executed at Fort Sill for the murder of a squaw man and his family. Killstraight promises to to find out what really happened and the way he does this is what makes the book a good read.
Like the Navajo police in Tony Hillerman's novels, Killstraight uses his knowledge of Comanche culture and custom to reveal the truth. A great way for readers to learn more about American Indian culture. |
