A Timeless Classic!!

This has been one of my favorite novels for many years. All film adaptations I've seen have always satisfied. Kevin McNally does an amazing job of narrating, especially of a pirate story. I'd love to see him as Long John Silver in a new film adaptation. I also want to hear more of him.

Make the Sackett series into a TV show
Reviewed: 10-11-21
Someone needs to make the Sackett series a TV show. One like the old days of TV, without all the sexual and nudity garbage, but with the video quality of today. Starting with Barnabas Sackett and then on down the line. It would be an amazing show to watch.

Jubal Sackett’s urge to explore drove him westward, and when a Natchez priest asks him to undertake a nearly impossible quest, Sackett ventures into the endless grassy plains the Indians call the Far Seeing Lands. He seeks a Natchez exploration party and its leader, Itchakomi. It is she who will rule her people when their aging chief dies, but first she must vanquish her rival, the arrogant warrior Kapata. Sackett’s quest will bring him danger from an implacable enemy...and show him a life - and a woman - worth dying for.

Inspiring!
Reviewed: 09-13-21
This book has reignited my boyhood admiration of the history of the American frontier. The ingenuity of the natives and the adaptation of the frontiersman to their ways, it inspires me to learn new skills. New to me, but almost lost with time. I long to spend a year or two exploring America before it was touched by the western expansion of the Old World.
