Customer Reviews

Flintlock Trail has made a Western fan out of me!

Jacques Maxwell's father was a Louisiana plantation owner, his mother half-Cajun, half-Creole slave. Jacques is a man who broke the bonds of slavery and set out to make his way in the world. His journey takes him from New Orleans; to love and ultimately heartbreak as he fights along side of Jean Lafitte in the war of 1812; to St. Louis; and finally into the untamed American territory, where he finds the love of a beautiful Crow woman, Dancing Water. Is it desire and love he sees in her eyes, or is it a mask of betrayal? Flintlock Trail is a marvelous book by veteran writer John Legg. Legg has the ability to capture the sights and sounds of a time gone by. His characters are three dimensional and fully come into their own, carrying the reader along on their journey. John Legg is a writer who manages to strike sparks in Flintlock. Whether he writes as John Legg, or Will McLennan, Mr. Legg's books are on my must buy list.
