Heroes of the Wild Frontier #2

When a young rider named Bill Cody saves a stagecoach from a stampeding buffalo herd, he catches the attention of both outlaws and opportunity seekers on the frontier. Dunc Blackburn and his gang see a skilled recruit they want to force into their ranks, but Cody refuses their offer and sends Lane Bradley packing—earning the outlaws' sworn enmity. Now employed as a buffalo hunter to supply meat for the railroad's construction crews, Cody finds himself in the dangerous territory where Blackburn and his men are waiting for their chance at revenge.

Davy Crockett leads a scouting party tracking Creek movements during the conflict, but friction with the troublemaking Yates Grimley threatens to undermine the mission when Grimley disobeys orders and fires on Indian scouts, scattering the band and forcing Davy's men into unexpected combat. As the scouts fight to hold their ground against overwhelming odds, Davy must rely on his wits and courage to uncover the Creeks' true plans before disaster strikes.

Daniel Boone accepts a mission from Colonel Richard Henderson to establish a settlement in the Kentucky territory that Henderson has secured from the Cherokee—but a Shawnee warrior warns that other tribes will not yield the land without a fight. As Boone leads his men over the mountains and begins constructing Fort Boonesboro, the determined Shawnees launch repeated attacks, and word spreads among them to summon reinforcements from Chief Black Fish across the Ohio River. With settlers and families headed toward the new fort, Boone must race against time to complete the stronghold before the Shawnee return in force.
