Description: THIS is the story of the rise and fall of a republic when America was young, and a handful of rugged pioneers pitted their strength against the Spanish crown. Before the broad background of the historical narrative is staged a private drama of love, jealousy, ambition, and intrigue. Here is the tale of Jonathan Kirk, a hot-blooded young Virginian and of the women he loved: dark-haired Cecily Marsten from Tennessee who courageously carves out a new life for herself and her family, and Teresa de Lerdo, blonde and enticing, in love with life and, most of all, with herself. It is Teresa who occasions Salazar's implacable enmity for Jonathan. Passions as gusty as the events which inspire them are unleashed as plot and counter-plot cross and recross while armies baffle. Week by week the tense drama unrolls under the great sun of the Texas plains. Sun In Their Eyes is more than just a story. It is a chapter out of our own stirring past, so heroic a chapter that it may well become a part of our inspiring American tradition, that tradition which includes the Alamo and the exploits of George Rogers Clark. This special edition of SUN IN THEIR EYES by Moyne Barrett has been made available to the Armed Forces of the United States through an arrangement with the original publisher, The Bobbs-Merrill Company, New York.
