Last Boat to Fort Benton, Avalon Books, 1994. "The Civil War is in its final days, but Confederate Colonel Thaddius Kingsley has no intention of giving up the fight. Pretending to be former soldiers heading to Fort Benton in search of gold, Kingsley, his men, and his fiery daughter Rebecca board Captain Zachary Cole's Union steamboat the West Wind. Along the way, the group encounters more than just the usual twists and turns of the mighty river. Kingsley and his cohorts attempt to hijack Cole's steamboat, leading to a series of skirmishes. And all the while, the Indians watch from the bluff, waiting for revenge." |
