This is the final recommendation/review on "Bowie: a Novel of the Life of Jim Bowie" by Randy Lee Eickhoff and Leonard C. Lewis, published by Tom Doherty Associates, LLC.

Please see my prior post for full details, but this is a summary. The book is a very good read as historically based fiction. I cannot vouch for it as history, but it "rings true", and it definitely NOT in the Barbara Gartland class of historical fiction.

Very Good Read!
