Description
"Infusing vivid imagery and fine detail......reminiscent of Louis L'Amour or Cormac McCarthy." -IndieReader
A period-piece novel, full of suspense and drama, set in the post-Civil War era, where the lives of two women merge--one fleeing an arranged marriage to a dangerous man; the other a freed slave seeking a new life on her own. After being thrown from a racing stagecoach and chased by buffalo wolves, Maggie and Mary find each other on the Kansas prairie and head to Abilene--the first of the Wild West towns. They keep company with a young cowhand, a con artist, and an outlaw so dangerous that it is against the law to attempt apprehending him. By the time Maggie's fiancée tracks her down, two of her suitors end up dead and the town forever changed.
A deeply-woven novel within a novel, The Prairie Dance stitches together the yarns and anecdotes of several African Americans who lived in the Wild West. If you like free-spirited heroines, paths to enlightenment, and period-piece stories of inner strength, then you'll love John Rae's literary western.
