Red Grass River: A Legend Tapa dura - 1998

Información de la editorial

A powerful historical saga of family loyalties and frontier spirit -- of blood feuds and betrayed friendships -- this is the legend of two men. John Ashley is a criminal, a folk hero, whose family hacked out a home in the merciless grass river world of the Florida Everglades at the turn of the century. Deputy Bobby Baker is a lawman born of lawmen. As youths, they were close companions. As men, they are the most bitter of enemies. When John breaks out of prison where he was being held for killing a man, he begins his life of bank robbing, rum running, and turf battles with the Chicago mob. As the 20th century encroaches and the Everglades are grudging way to the rising boom town of Miami, Bobby Baker selentlessly pursues his sworn goal of bringing Ashley to justice -- an obsession that will force him to make a devastating moral decision that could destroy him as well as his adversary.
