New Historical Fiction Revisits the Plains of Kansas during
the Late 19th Century.

First-time author Andru Hunter looks to the past to create a
different kind of hero in The Southern Plainsman.

The Southern Plainsman by Andru Hunter is the story of
one man’s journey to personal greatness.

In The Southern Plainsman, T.K. Ross, a plainsman since
the Civil War, is witnessing the westward flow of settlers.  
The wild ways of the Kansas prairies are now surrendering
to a new force.  The Indians are nearly subdued, and the
buffalo are becoming sparse.  Longing to settle down and
make a contribution to the community, T.K. takes his first
step toward taming the rough country of Newton, Kansas
and becomes a U.S. Marshal.  With his new badge, he sets
out to find love, friendship, and a home, meeting along the
way, historical figures such as Wild Bill Hickok, Buffalo Bill
Cody, and Buffalo Billy Dixon.  

While researching ancestors, the author came across a
relative who ultimately became the inspiration for the book’s
main character, and in keeping with the theme, the author
used real historical happenings and people where possible
to construct one exceptional story.  Hunter easily captures
the danger that people faced in their everyday lives living on
the plains.  

Encouraging readers to research their own history and
discover how ordinary people have extraordinary stories to
tell, this novel is wonderful addition to any home library.  A
captivating read filled with excitement and adventure, The
Southern Plainsman proves heroes are just regular people
who rise to the challenge at hand.
