Synopsis

One of the biggest land grabs in America’s history sets off a powderkeg of trouble for the Ridgeway family ranch—and ignites a deadly new fight for the fate of the nation.THE OKLAHOMA LAND RUSHAt high noon on April 22, 1889, the US government offered up two million acres of free land to anyone brave enough to take it—first come, first served. The fact that it was in the heart of Indian Territory didn’t stop thousands of would-be settlers from trying to stake a claim. For them, it was the opportunity of a lifetime. But for the Ridgeway family—and the native tribes of the region—it’s a disaster waiting to happen. On top of warding off cattle rustlers, they now have to compete for everything they have just to hold their ground. Together they will face every battle head-on to keep their dream alive …History would call it the Oklahoma Land Rush of 1889. But the Ridgeways—and thousands like them—would call it their last stand for justice, and a place to call home.

Goodreads review by Doug on August 01, 2021

Excellent addition to the series as it not only entertains, but also educates. Lots of characters who are developed through alternating chapters/episodes as the story builds to the great land run, the Boomers, and the Sooners, rushing to claim land in what is now Oklahoma. The story reads well as a......more

If you are a lover of Wild West, rancher, rustler, gun-slinging sorts, you will most likely love this historical novel set around 1889, just prior to the Oklahoma Land Rush (aka "Run" as termed in this book). This is the third in the series, and you'll find lots of excitement to pulsate the blood in......more
