Books like The Hostile Trail by Charles G. West


In the bitter winter of 1866, trail partners Matt Slaughter and Brister hunt elk in the remote Bighorn Mountains. Their peaceful expedition is shattered by an attack from a Sioux war chief led by the feared Iron Claw. Matt’s powerful Henry rifle—known as the spirit gun—becomes the key to their escape. After the conflict, Matt and the Sioux chief, known as Ike, head to Fort Loraine to enlist as cavalry scouts. When Matt’s partner is captured, a final, bloody confrontation with Iron Claw is inevitable, climaxing in the valley that would later become known as Little Bighorn.
