About

Shortgrass Song is the saga of young Caleb Holcomb as he makes his way through life in an epic as big as Texas itself. Caleb's adventures take him through Civil War battles, buffalo hunts, Indian wars and barroom shoot-outs. On his way he meets:

Snake Woman-the Comanche slave woman who kidnaps him as a child in an attempt to regain her rightful place in the tribe.

Kicking Dog-the renegade Arapaho who rampages through the West scalping victims from Texas to Montana.

Marisol-the Mexican beauty who bears Caleb's children and wins his love.

"Blakely writes with a beauty that rivals the Big Bend country or the Palo Duro at sunset."
Terry C. Johnston, author of the Plainsman series
"Shortgrass Song leaves me a bit stunned by its epic scope and the power of the writing. Excellent!"
Elmer Kelton, award-winning author of The Day the Cowboys Quit
"Blakely brings a fresh and wonderful new voice to the Western. Readers will hear more from him, and all of it will be good."
Norm Zollinger, Golden-Spur Award-winning author of Not of War Only
