The Buffalo Soldier (The Clarence Duval Series Book 3)

The Buffalo Soldier is the third book in the Clarence Duval Series by historical novelist Dr. Rob Bauer. He holds a PhD in American History.

Join Clarence Duval on Montana’s Trail of Tears and experience the heartbreaking journey of the Métis people of Montana.

It is now 1895, and Clarence is nineteen years old. When he loses his home in Montana, he heads east to St. Louis to meet his old friend, John Healy. Going with Clarence is John's niece, Mary Healy, who's adopted Clarence as her father figure. From the moment they board the train, however, nothing goes right. Instead of reaching St. Louis, they only get as far as Havre, Montana where, in a case of mistaken identity, Clarence and Mary become separated. Clarence must join the 10th U.S. Cavalry, better known as the Buffalo Soldiers, while Mary becomes a refugee helped by their new friend, Gabriel.

While Clarence learns to be a soldier, the Buffalo Soldiers get the task of deporting the Métis and the Cree Indians from Montana to Canada. One trouble is that Gabriel is one of the deportees. Worst of all, Mary Healy faces deportation along with him.

How can Clarence save his friends? Will any of them survive a six hundred-mile forced march to Canada? Share the story of one of the nineteenth century's forgotten catastrophes in the historical adventure The Buffalo Soldier.
