Notes
Description
The tall stranger: Rock Bannon rode a steel-dust stallion that was as stubborn and leather-tough as he was. Scouting for a wagon train full of high hopes, Rock saved the Eastern-bred settlers from a brutal Indian attack. But they paid him back with scorn when he advised against following a fast-talker named Morton Harper. Rock Bannon followed no man, so he left the settlers to their promised milk and honey-until they realized their mistake and had no one else to turn to. That's when Rock showed them what a real man was made of, and, with a smoking rifle, fought to put down Harper's outlaw crew and to make peace in the virgin land that he called his home.
Description
Kilkenny: He came to the valley of the whispering wind a man who rode with the caution born of riding long on strange trails in a land untamed and restless with danger. Kilkenny could find no peace in the valley, for he came with a reputation for a lightning draw. Eager gunmen arose like coyotes to test him. One trigger happy victim was a Tetlow. Old man Tetlow was a hard man driven by greed to build a cattle empire. Now he would use every ruthless killer he could hire to fulfill an even more powerful urge-to destroy Kilkenny.
Description
Hondo: Hondo Lane was a big, strong man, a tough man, unstoppable in a fight, but he was not a cruel man. Now, with the Apaches on the warpath, he finds a young woman and her son living in a ranch that is slowly going to pieces. Her husband is a degenerate who spends much of his time at the local fort cheating at cards and rustling cattle. Hondo must deal with the Indians, good and bad, in an effort to save the young woman from their depredations -- half-Apache himself, he knows the ways of the desert. In the midst of armed chaos, his rugged individualism and might must save the day.
Description
Showdown at Yellow Butte: Alton Burwick was itching to make a big land grab at Yellow Butte. But first, he had to drive the tough band of squatters from the range. So he rounded up a bunch of killers for the job, and hired Tom Kendrick to ramrod the crew, never mentioning that they would be fighting innocent men and women. Suddenly Kedrick realized he would have to do something fast -- before Burwick's mob turned Yellow Butte into a wasteland.
