Book excerpt: Tuckertown is the second novel in THE CRACKERS series. The Legend of Jessie B. Tucker began the story of how Jessie fought in and survived the Civil War with the help of his new-found Creek Indian family and then drove cattle across the wilderness. Paid for cattle in gold, Jessie bought up the land surrounding his homestead, fearing the carpetbaggers from the north would purchase his land. Traveling to Georgia for ex-slaves to help him build his empire, Jessie unknowingly begins an unstoppable force that will end in Tuckertown. With men to share crop the land, a preacher, a new church, a blacksmith and new commissary, the seeds of this new town are planted. All the new families will come to depend on Jessie and his wisdom to help them grow and prosper. Two Worlds, Jessie's spiritual advisor, guides Jessie through difficult times, when as a man, husband and father he is tested. Lawless greedy men travel the landscape of Florida causing terror in the new residents. Having defied the law by sheltering the Creek Indians, Jessie now has to become the law to protect the people and land he loves. Filled with adventures, love, loss and promise, Tuckertown will not disappoint you!
