Washington, DC Author Publishes New Book

Bad Lands, a new book by Taou Badawi, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

After the Great War between the North and the South, two black Americans, John Quincy and Milo, hooked up with each other heading west to seek out their destiny. Along the treacherous trails, death and danger lurked everywhere as they contended with thieves, murderers, rustlers and posses bent on bringing black pioneers back to the Northern plantations. In one such encounter, the two saved a group of people; desperate to find a place they could call home, from the hands of one such posse, led by Kas Lavender.

In the plains and mountains of Colorado, J.Q., Milo and the group of settlers found a new meaning about human existence, discovered a new way of living, established road shows and found meaningful relationships, while loving and dedicating themselves to the land.

But is all of it ever meant to stay in their hands, when Kas and his crew never ceased to cast murderous eyes against the blasphemous newcomers?
