J Arthur Eidson is a descendant of Texas pioneers and learned of the closing of the frontier from the old ones. Eidson's decades as a conservationist and teacher and his work in rural Texas have given him a unique view of the landscape and people. He lives in Hamilton, Texas, where his family settled in the 1850's. His writing has focused on the early history of his ancestral county. Orphans Afield is his second novel.
