About the Book
The South had lost the war and chaos had taken the place of a genteel life of the Southern people. The carpetbaggers and the Northern Government had made it impossible for the defeated South to retain any of its life it enjoyed before the war.
Some fled to Mexico. Many to South America. In Mexico they were forced to return by the Mexican Government, but in South America they prospered. Clay and his family went west. There Clay became a legend as a cattleman and deadly with a six-shooter. From the Brazos to Dodge City to Cimarron to the Pecos Clay was known and feared by some.
