The Jayhawker...

“This novel has all the passions of our arbitrary human ‘borders’ —

tribal, racial, class, ethnic, gender —

during the 1850s Kansas Border War....It is an exciting story.”

— Paul Williams

whose reviews have appeared in

The Los Angeles Times and The Kansas City Star

“I found it an intriguing story —

one of the most intriguing I’ve ever read....

A fascinating mixture of fact and fiction

about events preceding the Civil War.”

— Anita Tebbe

Kansas historian and author

“...heroism, family devotion, romance — then there’s incest,

along with the vengeance, corruption, treachery,

rape, butchery, and slaughter that ‘won’ the West.”

— from the Prologue of The Jayhawker
