Comanche Is Not My Name 1

By William Fagus

‘I was birthed a high-plains mustang.
Raised a Comanche buffalo pony.
Got poked by the goddamn posterior bones of Custer hisself.
Life don’t get more entertaining than that.’

At last, the tumultuous autobiography of the ‘one and only living survivor of the fight known as the Little Big Horn.’ Indian buffalo runner, homestead workhorse, wolfer, Indian warhorse, famous US Cavalry mount, Comanche (not his real name) takes us on an epic journey from the searing high plains of Texas to the frozen wastes of South Dakota and the Wounded Knee Creek. In turn visceral, heart-wrenching and hilarious, we are pitched into an authentic world brimming with unforgettable characters, as two cultures collide.

Comanche Is Not My Name: a riotous tale of survival and triumph set against the stark beauty of the Great Plains. My Jeopardacious Life on the High Plains is the first part of his extraordinary life.
