His knowledge of the state's history is complete, too--drawn from the lives of real people.” Fort Worth Star-Telegram“Elmer Kelton's Westerns are not filled with larger than life gunfighters who can shoot spurs off a cowboy's boots at 100 yards.

When a deadly feud ensues, the town of Stonehill heads toward a day of reckoning and the creation of a legend.. "Eyes of the Hawk was inspired by an old Texas legend about an embittered father who swore to kill the town that had killed his son, and let vengeance turn him into the man he hated most."
