Cimarron Jordan
Matt Braun

On the western plains, they forged a friendship in courage...and ended it in blood.

From Abilene to the Smoky Hill country, they fought and hunted side by side. And when they went their separate ways, each knew they would meet again.

Cimarron Jordan built a town in Texas, carved a trail to Kansas, and battled the Comanche in the Staked Plains. Virge Hollister made his career with a badge and a gun. Now, on the streets of Dodge City, the two legends of the fierce plains would come face-to-face again-- as the deadliest of enemies.

From the Back Cover:

"MATT BRAUN IS A MASTER STORYTELLER OF FRONTIER HISTORY."

―Elmer Kelton

One was a Plainsman who lived by his own law

Cimarron Jordan built a town in Texas, carved a trail to Kansas, and battled the Comanche in the Staked Plains. He became a legend in his own time. Until his past came back to haunt him...

The other was a lawman who lived by his gun

Virge Hollister made his career with a badge and a gun. From Abilene to the Smoky Hill country, he and Jordan had once fought and hunted side by side, forging a friendship in courage―and in blood. But now, on the streets of Dodge City, the two legends of the fierce plains will come face-to-face again...as the deadliest of enemies.

"BRAUN IS ONE OF THE BEST!"

―Don Coldsmith, author of the Spanish Bit series

About the Author:

Matt Braun is a fourth-generation Westerner, steeped in the tradition and lore of the frontier era. His books reflect a heritage rich with the truths of that bygone time. Raised among the Cherokee and Osage tribes, Braun learned their traditions and culture, and their philosophy became the foundation of his own beliefs. Like his ancestors, he has spent most of his life wandering the mountains and plains of the West. His heritage and his contribution to Western literature resulted in his appointment by the Governor of Oklahoma as a Territorial Marshal.

Braun is the author of more than forty novels and four nonfiction works, including BLACK FOX, which was made into a CBS miniseries, and ONE LAST TOWN, which was made into a TNT movie called YOU KNOW MY NAME. Western Writers of America awarded Braun the prestigious Golden Spur Award for THE KINCAIDS. He is also the recipient of the Cowboy Spirit Award and was inducted into the Cowboy Hall of Fame in 1999.
