Book excerpt: As an historic fiction novel, this book depicts the life of a Native American Ute, Boyd Barfoot, as he struggles with racism and the existence of God after making Army ranger and later being deployed to the Vietnam War. Derogatorily referred to as "Chief," Boyd earns the respect of all who come in contact with him. He also finds first-love with a Vietnamese girl- Mia Lee. Woven within the chapters of this novel are the factual causes leading up to the Vietnam War. Attempting to end Vietcong attacks of US troops near Saigon and the rescue of POWs in Cambodia are two of Boyd's spine-tingling adventures. All editing was performed solely by the author and his wife. If you enjoy this book, additional gift copies can be ordered through http: //www.authorhouse.com/.
