The Only Thing That Can Hold You Back Is Yourself
They say, "where there's a will, there's a way..."
Star Idaho: March, 2021
When a young man’s dream has always been to be a Texas Ranger, imagine his world falling around his shoulders when he is told because he has only one good leg and a wooden appendage, he does not qualify.
Now imagine an engineer offering to build a leg that functions just like a normal leg with no problems…now you have a story.
Jim Christina, author of many western novels, poetry and
music has crafted a novel of such a young man and his trials and travails as a
sworn Texas Ranger following in his father’s footsteps. The engineer is Thomas M.
Griffith fresh from building the Brazos River Suspension Bridge and his new leg
is key. Functioning like a normal leg, it gets Jefferson an appointment with
the Texas Rangers and the code they lived by.
Crafted
with humor, stalwart honesty and a running chase between renegade Comanches and
two neer-do-wells, Jefferson’s Chance takes the reader from Austin Texas to the
wilds of the Llano Estacado in Northern Texas. Pitting Jefferson and his new
companion, Caleb Stringfeld, against a Comanche war chief named Mukwuroo and
his friend, Pecos, both holdouts from Quanah’s surrender in 1874.
Climb
aboard your mount and join Jefferson Greely, Caleb Stringfeld and Estevez Rialto
in their search for two white captive children and Estevez’s daughter.
Jefferson’sChance is available now through Amazon and all on-line book sellers along with
from the author’s website, jimchristina.net in digital, paperback and hard
bound editions.
