Eyes of Eagles

1993

THE GREATEST WESTERN WRITER OF THE 21ST CENTURY A man as rugged as the New Frontier and as bold as the untamed West . . . Orphaned at the age of seven and adopted by the Indians, Jami Ian MacCallister grew into a man more at ease in the wilderness than among men. But when the westward strike drove him across the Arkansas Territory into Texas, he finally found himself a home—in the middle of a bloody war. Texans like Jim Bowie and Sam Houston were waging a fierce struggle against Santa Anna’s Mexican army, and Jami MacCallister made the perfect scout for the fledgling volunteer force. What lay ahead of them was a place called the Alamo, thirteen days of blood, dust and courage, and a battle that would become an undying legend of the American West . . .
