Greetings, travelers. The Otherworld stretches beyond the cosmos and through other dimensions, but not all its most powerful stories lie in distant galaxies. Some are born on the windswept plains of early America. Today, our path leads us westward, into a rugged land of glaciers, high peaks, and untamed wilderness, where honor and survival clash on the edge of history. If you’re looking to experience the legacy of the past, read on to learn more about Buckskin Brigades.
L. Ron Hubbard, in this breakout novel, Buckskin Brigades, shows off his keen sense of adventure and a deep respect for cultures caught in the tides of change. He crafts a sweeping, richly detailed world. Fur traders press into Blackfeet hunting grounds, tensions simmer, and one man stands between two worlds. His loyalty to his adopted people, fierce and unwavering, becomes the beating heart of a story that never lets up on both emotion and action. The stakes feel immense but deeply personal, and Hubbard tackled the material through a lens of progressiveness for its time.
Honor. Spirit. Survival. A story of the Blackfeet Nation.
“A thriller [which has] an enthusiasm, even a freshness and a sparkle, decidedly rare in this type of romance.” —New York Times
Greed crossed the mountains. Honor stood its ground.
1806. A young republic just three decades old—the United States of America—is preparing to press westward across the Mississippi, into a land as wild as it is breathtaking: a territory of towering mountains and violent rivers, icy glaciers and searing deserts—the great Northwest.
Driven by greed and renowned for their ruthlessness, fur traders have already begun encroaching on the forbidden hunting grounds of the Blackfeet.
When Captain Meriwether Lewis fires a bullet that kills a Blackfoot warrior, he ignites a conflict that will echo for generations—lighting the fuse between encroaching traders and one of the mightiest warrior nations on the plains.
Caught in the fallout is Michael Kirk—known to his adopted people as Yellow Hair. Raised by the Blackfeet, bound by their honor, he is chosen as a silent envoy into the white man’s world. Tasked with infiltrating the fur traders, Yellow Hair must navigate a world of deception, greed, and shifting loyalties—all while protecting the culture that shaped him.
Drawing from firsthand accounts, fur trade journals, and a lifetime of fascination with indigenous history, Buckskin Brigades is a sweeping saga of American history—a story of courage, endurance, and one man’s stand on the edge of a nation’s violent transformation.
You will love this historical fiction of 19th Century America because, as the Durham Herald review states, it is “a crack adventure…exciting…historically accurate. Buckskin Brigades presents a new struggle and a new scene in fiction.”
Buckskin Brigades is not just about a battle for land or profit. It’s about identity, belonging, and whether someone from outside can truly understand a culture they want to call home. Hubbard’s prose crackles with urgency, with danger lurking at every trading post, betrayal hiding behind smiles, and loyalties tested under the wide-open sky. This is more than just a Western. It’s a panoramic journey through a turning point in American history, filled with palpable tension. If proud warriors, and the unyielding spirit of frontier life beckon you, and you love sweeping adventure, moral complexity, and a hero who bridges two worlds, Buckskin Brigades stands as a beacon of pulp-era storytelling done with heart.
