The Glory River

From the two-time Spur Award finalist, a novel of one restless man's dangerous journey through the early American frontier . . .

His name was Bushrod Underhill, a son of the Cumberland mountains, inheritor of a pioneer spirit and a restless soul. Raised by a French-born Indian trader among the Cherokees and Creeks, Bushrod left the dark mountains of the American Southeast for the promise of an open frontier.

But in the era of the Natchez Trace and Louisiana Purchase, a storm of violence was waiting for Bushrod across the mighty Mississippi. Now, what separated Bushrod from those around him was a strange gift given by an old slave, a young man's daring to take on any fight, and the skill to walk away alive . . .

Cameron Judd's Underhill novels chronicle the dramatic saga of one man's life—a life that follows the days of the early American frontier, of the men and women who came together as friends, family, and enemies, and of the pioneers who pushed westward into the raging violence of the Indian wars.

Praise for Cameron Judd

"Judd's brilliant characterizations demonstrate that there still are marvelous stories to be spun from the time-worn conventions of the western . . . The classically suspenseful, neatly ironic ending is flawless." —Publishers Weekly

"Judd writes a mean story." —Zane Grey's West
