Description:
Andrew Huebner's real-life great-great-grandfather, August, left New Jersey in 1876 to join the army in the West. Within the author's family the myth grew that August arrived with two companions a day late to the Battle of Little Big Horn. In American by Blood, Andrew Huebner builds on these scant biographical details about his mysterious ancestor and extensive research to create a fast-paced novel that resounds with all the vitality and violence of the American West.

The horrific images of the battlefield haunt the three soldiers, now charged with the task of clearing the surrounding land of Indian tribes. Their journey into the wilderness in search of their prey becomes a mission of vengeance, forcing each man to come to terms with his own ideals and the message embodied in America's policies in the West.
