Unravel the tale of Alexander Johnson, a former slave turned Buffalo Soldier, navigating loyalty and identity amidst the U.S. Army's crusade against Native tribes. In his journey, witness a fresh angle on America's untold history, shaped by silence, empathy, and conflict.
Buffalos thrusts readers into the tumultuous years following the Civil War, a time rife with uncertainty and change. Alexander Johnson trades the shackles of his past for the uniform of a soldier. Dispatched to Nebraska as part of the Army's merciless campaign against the Cheyenne tribe, Johnson's world is turned on its head when he finds more respect from the enemy he has been sent to annihilate than from his own command.
As the U.S. military advances, Johnson is caught in the crossfire. With the looming threat of brutal plains battles, he grapples with allegiance and loyalty. Is he a friend or foe to the Cheyenne? Is he a soldier of the U.S. Army or is he a tool of a dispassionate campaign?
Buffalos is not just an action-packed Western. It's a narrative about identity, survival, and empathy amidst a brutal conflict.
A work of thrilling historical fiction, Buffalos is a "what-if" story set in the bloody plains west.
