ATTENTION: Lovers of Frontier History and Warrior Women!!


My frontier novel about Chief Joseph and his struggle to save his people in the Nez Perce War of 1877 is finally coming out! Can you help my publisher and I choose the best cover? PLEASE VOTE AT THIS LINK SO YOUR VOTE COUNTS!

BLOOD TO RUBIES is about two worlds colliding on the Western frontier and Chief Joseph's heroic struggle to save his tribe. I honor especially the women warriors who fought with Joseph--often overlooked in history. My book was vetted by the Nez Perce tribe and the Forward is written by Chief Joseph descendant and leading Nez Perce elder. A portion of the sales of BLOOD TO RUBIES will go to the Chief Joseph Foundation empowering Nez Perce youth, especially young women! (Many are direct descendants of Chief Joseph.)


Thank you Christina Talavera and the awesome members of Old West History & Cultures for helping us choose the best cover for BLOOD TO RUBIES. Read more about the novel at: www.DeborahHufford.com.
