Tallgrass begins in the 16th century with the arrival of the first Spanish conquistadors and sweeps the reader into the mammoth cultural clash between these newcomers and the native Americans already there: Osage, Pawnee, Comanche, Cheyenne, and more. This is the saga of the warriors, priests, trappers, traders, explorers, schemers, and other pioneers who come alive in these pages.
