About the book
About Close encounters of the old West
Long before the X-files, nearly 70 years before Roswell, President James Garfield, mortally wounded by an assassin's bullet, summoned a young educated Cherokee half-breed, Jonah "Tenkiller" Montana, to his seaside retreat to launch a campaign to investigate unexplained and troublesome mysteries plaguing the post Civil War nation. Mysterious "airships" were being sighted, tales of strange and alien creatures were threatening to hamper the spread of civilization westward, fantastic supernatural tales of Indian lore were frightening settlers, and there were rumors of a diabolical secret plot to disrupt the young Republic's very existence through conspiracies and key assassinations in a plan to change the face of a fledgling nation and establish a One-World Order masterminded by an ancient alien race. Montana is charged by the President with initiating a campaign to uncover the truth behind America's most puzzling and threatening mysteries.
