Other editions of book The Sea of Grass

The lines of battle were drawn. Colonel Jim Brewton, lord of a vast domain of New Mexico grassland, threw his angry challenge at the crowding sodbusters and their protector, the United States Army of the West. Alone, Jim Brewton meant to stand off his government - and the relentless tides of history. The Sea of Grass is the story of the fight, of the man who waged it and of the beautiful woman he brought to that lawless land. It is a uniquely powerful and moving novel of the early Southwest and the American past by one of our greatest historical novelists.
