O knihe

Sarah Cisneros believer her
sixteen-year-old twin sons, Adam and Benji, are far too
young and far too innocent to participate in the ranch's
upcoming cattle drive. But the boys are insistent and are
eager to build the legacy of Dos Encinos. This will be one
last adventure before they head off to college.

Adam sustains serious injuries during a stampede while on
the ride. As he recuperates in the small central Texas
village of Comanche, he becomes enamored with the
innkeeper's daughter, Martha Taylor. Adam and Martha pledge
to wait for each other as Adam enters medical school in Fort
Worth, Texas. Meanwhile, Benji pursues his dreams of
becoming an architect.
After graduation from
medical school, in spite of more enticing and lucrative
opportunities to settle in an urban community, Adam returns
to Comanche, re-unites with Martha, and starts his medical
practice. He doesn't realize the hostilities and personal
threats he would face in bringing new concepts of medical
treatment to a community served only by charlatans and
untrained doctors. Adam must rely on his heritage of
strength from the pioneer cattlemen of south Texas--his Dos
Encinos legacy--to guide him through the strife he faces.
