Description

Amos Edwards and his adopted nephew, Martin Pauley, try to to find 10 year-old Debbie Edwards, who was abducted by Comanche after a raid that left her family dead. The story is loosely based on what happened to Cynthia Ann Parker, abducted by Comanches in Texas in 1836 when she was about 10 years old. The Searchers was later adapted into the classic movie of the same name, directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne. This ebook includes a bonus short story, "The Battle of Gunsmoke Lode," originally published in Collier's Weekly in 1930.
