With Devil on The Wall, James Wake-
field Burke has solidified his reputation
as one of the nation s most important
writers of historical fiction.
His saga of the 1830s is a broad-
sweeping portrayal of the lives and times
of four men from four distinct regions of
the continent who are inexorably drawn
by fate - perhaps by the devil himself - to
a date with destiny and death.
Down different roads they come, each
driven by his own separate ambition,
strangers caught in a web of circumstan-
ces from which there is no escape. And
when their paths cross- as they must - it
is a confrontation, a duel of men among
men that has been carved forever into the
rich tapestry of Texas history.
No one researches the past like James
Wakefield Burke. And no one has ever
done a more admirable job of capturing
the essence, the magnitude, the indepen-
dent spirit of a bloody era where men
were sometimes heroes and sometimes
villains, but whose deeds can never be
quite forgotten.
