Andrew Jackson Potter was an Indian fighter, race rider, common soldier in the U. S. army, chaplain in C. S. army, and circuit rider on the Texan frontier at a time when it required courage and judgment. The book tells tales out of six years of Indian warfare in New Mexico and Arizona and reflects many wonderful events in his ministerial life on the frontier border of western Texas, during a long term of evangelical toils and personal combats with savage indians and during desperadoes, including many hair-breadth escapes.
