|---|
"Chick Bowdrie is a hardened Texas Ranger. He rides where the trail takes him and where that one ends another will start. He's after dry-gulchers, horse thieves and cattler rustlers and nothing will stand in his way to bring them in. This book is a series of short episodes in Bowdries life as he gets himself in and out of scrapes. He's a lawman in the wildness of Old Texas but he rides with his own brand of justice."

"Chick Bowdrie had a reputation as a fast-draw gun slinger. In the 'Wild West', he could of made a hard-earned living on the wrong side of the law. Instead, Bowdrie became a Texas Ranger and rode the dusty trails in search of desperate outlaws. This book is a collection of some of Bowdrie's toughest cases. Through these cases Bowdrie reveals that serving justice in the life of a Texas Ranger makes a man tough and weathered like the trails he rides."
