The Shadow of E. Z.'s Fear
Book 1 of 3 in the historical fiction series Fighting Devil's Backbone.
by Tony Turnbow
In 1809, when his widowed mother decides to move E. Z. Perkins and his younger brother to the new Mississippi Territory, the boys are thrown into a dangerous new world. Their new home lies somewhere along the bloodiest road in American history - the Natchez Trace. Filled with cutthroat bandits, angry Indian warriors, and monstrous creatures, the road has earned the name “The Devil’s Backbone.”
Photographers of the First, Second and Third Place winning photos will each receive a copy of The Shadow of E. Z.'s Fear. For more information about Tony Turnbow's books about the Natchez Trace, click to: www.tonyturnbow.com.
