LONG WAY TO TEXAS BY LEE MCELROY (ELMER KELTON) 1979 SIGNED DELL SOFTCOVER
Originally published in hardcover in 1976 by Doubleday & Company. Signed on the title page: "Elmer Kelton alias Lee McElroy 3/23/95." "Lieutenant David Buckalew and his men had left Texas on a march westward to claim the entire Southwest for the Confederacy. But defeat after humiliating defeat at the hands of the Union army has stranded Buckalew and nineteen battle-weary survivors in the New Mexico Territory-a territory crawling with hostile Comanches and Union soldiers. As Buckalew and his men make a run for their homeland of Texas, they learn the location of a cache of Union weapons and ammunition. If they could seize the weapons before the Union troops arrive to collect them, they might be able to shift the odds in the South's favor. However, those keeping the cache for the North have other ideas . . ."
