Tracks to Harlon County: Twenty-One Tales of Life and Adventure THE PURSUERS

When the Pursuers trilogy novels were written it was impossible to provide more than a brief introduction of the people who appear there. Lives are complex. Experiences and events build on one another. Writers know that readers want to move on to whats next from whenever and wherever the story opens. Telling too much of what has happened in the past can bog down the mystery and adventure at hand.But readers have expressed interest in learning how the people in the Pursuers Trilogy came to be who they are. Why did they decide to act in one way rather than another? Bronco Sarge and Preacher as well as the people they encountered were busy living their lives long before they met danger on a dark country road death in a creek bottom in Alabama or a frisky old man in the Lucky Star Tavern in Titustown Georgia. Danger and adventure sometimes create wounds and sometimes build character. Sometimes people meet victory and sometimes defeat.This anthology provides an opportunity for readers who have not yet started the trilogys first novel Trouble in Harlon County a taste of the lives of the three men through their earlier adventures. At the same time readers who have already read the trilogy have an opportunity to read more about the three men who came from Pumpkin Missouri; Ashland Ohio; and Titustown Georgia.The stories of the three primary protagonists are presented in chronological order in rotation. Stories of the people they encounter as friends and foes are woven into that sequence.
