Head ‘em up, move ‘em out! It’s cattle-drive time. . . Back in the days before refrigeration, moving beef cattle from the Texas ranches where they were raised to the stockyards of Dodge City and Wichita, Kansas, was no easy task. It was hundreds of slow, hot, dusty, boring miles punctuated only by moments of stark terror—from rustlers, from storms, from stampedes. It took a special breed of cowboy to get this job done. Dusty McCoy fits the bill. He is nineteen, with dark eyes that turn pitch-black when he’s angry—and you don’t want to make Dusty angry! He’s a ferocious and fearless fighter with his fists and his six-gun, and he’s already dispatched the man who wronged his family. But Dusty is also deeply loyal to his friends and fellow cowhands when he’s hired to help drive 5,000 head of cattle from Channing, Texas, two hundred miles to Dodge City, and then another one hundred and fifty miles to Wichita. Saddle up and hit the trail in this exciting new cattle-drive adventure from D.M. Haggard—but bring your six-guns and pack plenty of ammo, because this is no easy ride!
