Tillfälligt slut

In 1874 a boy leaves a comfortable life in Chicago and heads west to work on the burgeoning railroad, quickly finding the labor not to his liking. He joins a disparate group of itinerant buffalo hunters led by a tough old ex-Indian fighter named War Bag Tyler and they pass into Texas to participate in the great slaughter. The season draws to a close and death strikes the outfit. War Bag swears a Cheyenne Dog Soldier from his past is responsible. As War Bag plots a new hunt, a hunt for the Cheyenne, the boy must choose between life and death.

Ed Erdelac is a gifted storyteller. In the mold of Elmer Kelton, his Buff Tea tells a universal story, a journey of personal discovery through the moral ambiguities that confront us all. It breathes life into a West we know, weaving historical places and events into a tale that is as enjoyable as it will be memorable.—Ty Cashion, author of A Texas Frontier: The Clearfork Country & Fort Griffin, 1849–1887|""Erdelac's story is told using pieces of actual history. This exciting first novel perfectly captures the legendary essence of Ft. Griffin and its buffalo hunters.""--Betsy Black Parsons, Director of the Fort Griffin Fandangle, Albany, Texas.|""Edward M. Erdelac is one of the best of the new Western writers. His perfect balance of period research, authentic characters, and mythic storytelling practically guarantees a terrific read every time.""--Craig Clarke, co-editor, Living After Midnight: Hard and Heavy Stories
