<< Hi
I am looking for a book that was around in the 1960's. It was a older
children's fiction or young adult type book. I have checked all the
regular sources. Unfortunately, I'm going to sound like one of our
library patrons, it was on the shelf over there. (ha). All I can
remember is the plot. a young man's older brother who was raised by Native
Americans, I think it was Commanches, is a gunfighter. The book is told
from the point of view of the younger brother. It was not Mocassin Trail
or Cheyenne Autumn. Any hints will be welcomed, I've been looking for this
one a long time.
thanks
Jean

It's remotely possible that you might be thinking of a book called The
Comancheros, by Paul I. Wellman. It was made into a movie.

Except that (a) there was no younger brother in "The Comancheroes," and (b)
it's an adult novel.
