by Vaunda Micheaux Nelson
illustrations by R. Gregory Christie
Beginning with an exciting shootout, young readers will be drawn into the life of Bass Reeves, a deputy marshal who tracked down outlaws in 1875 Oklahoma. Highly intelligent with a strong sense of justice, Reeves kept order to such a degree that outlaws knew their numbers were up as soon as he had their warrants.
Colourful, lively language and bold paintings dramatize an exciting period of the American Old West.
