Follow the Angels, Follow the Doves is an origin story in the true American tradition. Before Bass Reeves could stake his claim as the most successful nineteenth-century American lawman, arresting more outlaws than any other deputy during his thirty-two-year career as a deputy U.S. marshal in some of the most dangerous regions of the Wild West, he was a slave. After a childhood picking cotton, he became an expert marksman under his master’s tutelage, winning shooting contests throughout the region. His skill had serious implications, however, as the Civil War broke out. Reeves was given to his master’s mercurial, sadistic, Moby-Dick-quoting son in the hopes that Reeves would keep him safe in battle. The ensuing humiliation, love, heroics, war, mind games, and fear solidified Reeves’s determination to gain his freedom and drew him one step further on his fated path to an illustrious career. Follow the Angels, Follow the Doves is an important historical work that places Reeves in the pantheon of American heroes and a thrilling historical novel that narrates a great man’s exploits amid the near-mythic world of the nineteenth-century frontier.

Life in the Ozark Mountains of northern Arkansas was traditionally one of moonshine stills and less than law abiding hill folks, the Wakefield Clan being no different. Except that they owned more than thirty miles of the range of mountains, with its many lakes, waterfalls, lush meadows and breathtaking wilderness. Life here was one of serenity, yet dangerous as they cooked the devils brew, but it’s how they made their living, all they had ever known,...so, life continued. This was an acceptable way of life for the Wakefield family, had been for generations, and they were happy, at least all but one of them. Lincoln Wakefield knew there was something more to life than making whiskey, knew there had to be. The world was larger than just thirty miles of mountaintop, and he longed to see it, experience it firsthand. He hated the moonshine business, everything about it, and especially having to deliver and collect for the illegal drink. Yet he endured it until his sixteenth birthday, and one day during one of his deliveries, it became too much for him. Returning home after twenty-three years, he was a wanted man with the law not far behind him. But he was home, reputation and all,...and it was then that his new role in life became a mystery of sorts as he sorted out and solved the problems his family had encountered,...and doing so without anyone knowing his true identity. This is the story of the gunfighter known only as Angel, and how he became known as the Guardian....A story of family love and togetherness, all tightly woven together to produce the legend of the Ozark’s Guardian Angel.
