Publisher's Summary

The Texican is a fictional account of one man’s experiences during the middle to late 19th century in Texas. Honks Pickens decided to kill two Apache that stole his cattle - an ill-advised decision that led to the Indians killing his family and a series of tit-for-tat vengeful killings that would last for years. From his military service in the Mexican-American War to working as a range detective, days as a bounty hunter, Indian fighter, and scout for the Army, Texas Ranger, and US marshall, Honks Pickens embodied the spirit of the rough and tumble life on the western frontier.

Whether in the capacity of rancher or gunfighter, Honks remains the constant in an ever changing and violent Texas during the day when the gun was the only law that ruled the land. Honks Pickens represents what is the best and worst of us - an imperfect man attempting to deal with his demons during a time of violence and retribution.
