This book delivers a Texas-size love story that transplants the legend of Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot and Merlin alive and well to the Old West.
When young cowhand Jimmy Goodnight visits a country fair, he astonishes everyone by pulling an axe out of an anvil - a feat that has defeated the strongest men in Texas. He uses the prize money to follow his dream; recruiting cowboys, putting together a herd of cattle, and driving them across the plains to a deep canyon, where he intends to make his own private kingdom.
Goodnight's luck and courage bring him the comradeship of his men, and in Jack Loving the friendship of a lifetime. Loving is everything Goodnight isn't - handsome, graceful, a naturally gifted horseman, and a great dancer. Their relationship becomes the bedrock on which Goodnight's growing empire rests - until a woman appears with whom both men fall in love . . .
