Publisher's Synopsis
"A spellbinding family saga about how an escaped slave, a wounded confederated soldier, and a young Mexican immigrant become a family. Entwistle takes us through time from the 1800's through the present day with the trials of the Taylor family. His words transport you from the oppressive humidity of the southern rice fields to the stench of bootlegging in St Louis, the dust and grime of the railroad, to a modern day ranch family settled among the mountains of Colorado. From train station masters, a lone deputy bounty hunter, to bigoted, crooked businessmen, and the women they marry, the colorful cast of characters draws you in from the very first sentence. The Taylor Legacy was a semi-finalist in the CIBA book awards.
