The Survivor – The Story of the Texas Captain - Book I

One autumn afternoon in 1911 on a front porch in Texas, an elderly cattleman begins to reflect on his past and the war that shaped America…

In the autumn of 1861, the three Wade brothers—a farmer, a teacher, and a student—find themselves swept up in the horrific turmoil between the North and South.

Beginning with their baptism under fire at the at the Battle of Elkhorn Tavern in Arkansas to the bloody and brutal Battle of Corinth in Mississippi, the Wade brothers have morphed from brothers by blood to brothers in arms.

As the nation tragically tears itself asunder, Henry Wade and his brothers find themselves battling a foreign—yet familiar—foe.

In book one of The Texas Captain Trilogy, we see Henry Wade transform into an efficient fighter, a cunning cavalry scout, and a natural leader of Company B.

Based on true events, author Mark Wade brings to life the story of his ancestor, The Texas Captain.

December 1943. New York City is on fire, reeling from a massive surprise attack by German bombers. American military units have been pulled from the west coast to augment meager and embattled units on the East Coast in anticipation of further, and expected, attacks. A handful of air, ground, and naval units are the only remaining defense on the West Coast.
The Imperial Japanese War Machine Threatens

Military units of the Empire of Japan have sensed new American weakness and seized the opportunity. With unprecedented cooperation and coordination with Hitler’s military machine, Imperial Japanese forces have mobilized and are speeding towards vulnerable American targets

The Panama Canal Lies Wide Open to Attack

The Panama Canal Zone have been stripped to bolster the East Coast from further expected German attacks. A handful of air, ground, and naval units are the only defense available to defend the vital Allied waterway.

Once again, you’ll experience breathtaking action and historical drama as American soil is threatened by another foreign power. Japanese warplanes have been reported over the Panama Canal Zone. The handful of available American military units are scrambling to protect the vulnerable and vital waterway.

Can the Americans stop the Japanese bombers before they release their weapons on the vulnerable Panama Canal, or will the Imperial Japanese forces strike another “Impossible Target”?

City lights and radio stations are back on across the East Coast as normalcy has returned to America.
