The Last War Trail is a historical novel written by Edward S. Ellis. It is set in the late 1800s and follows the story of a young man named Will Cody, who is forced to leave his family and home in Kansas to join the army and fight in the Indian Wars. Will is a skilled hunter and tracker, and his talents are put to use as he helps the army track down and capture Native American warriors who are resisting the encroachment of white settlers on their lands.As Will travels across the western frontier, he encounters both friends and enemies. He forms a close bond with a fellow soldier named Jim Bridger, who teaches him valuable survival skills and shares his knowledge of the land. But Will also faces danger from hostile tribes who are determined to defend their way of life.Throughout the novel, Ellis vividly portrays the harsh realities of life on the frontier, from the brutal battles between soldiers and Native Americans to the struggles of settlers trying to carve out a new life in an untamed wilderness. The Last War Trail is a gripping tale of adventure, courage, and sacrifice, and it offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal period in American history.1887. Ellis, a prolific writer who used a number of pseudonyms, is the author of stories for The Flying Boys Series, Deerfoot Series, Boys Banner Series, Foreign Adventure Series, Wyoming Valley Series, Young Pioneer Series, Log Cabin Series and many more. The Last War Trail is the third volume in the Deerfoot Series. The book begins: Now, I have a secret which I wish to tell my young friends in this the first chapter of The Last War Trail. I believe it is the rule among storywriters that such matters are to be held back until the close of the narrative. In one respect I am following that rule, for the little secret about which I dropped a hint here and there among the Young Pioneer Series, Log-Cabin Series, and the two volumes of this series, has been reserved for the last in which the name of Deerfoot the Shawanoe will ever be mentioned.
