Sobre IBD

Jack Chaney was just eighteen when he first rode into Arkansas City, Kansas, at the dawn of the twentieth century as a cow hand on a cattle drive from Texas. Disenchanted with the life of a cowboy, he decided to stay in Ark City and seek his fortune there. What unwinds for Jack is a saga involving three marriages, two World Wars, a career as Chief of Police, and a life that spanned over a hundred years. A story of joy, heartbreak, lust, unparalleled heroics, and more ups and downs than a roller coaster.
