A story about prejudice, survival, and a way of life that is nearly forgotten in the modern world. Are the old ways the best?…You be the judge. This is the story of a Native American who, after serving his country in Vietnam, finds that prejudice is alive and well at home. He learns that “justice for all” are just empty words that do not include the native people, and that money sometimes seems more important than life-long friendships. He takes the law into his own hands, and the federal marshal that attempts to catch him learns that the fugitive he is after is no ordinary man. He is not only educated in the Apache way of living with nature, but also in the white man’s world of mistrust, and the Marines Special Forces ways of survival. Get to know Jim Callingbird like a best friend…slowly, over time.
