Wild Bill Hickok undertakes a cattle drive from Kansas through dangerous Indian territory to Montana, navigating treacherous terrain and hostile encounters with Kiowa warriors. Meanwhile, a separate war party attacks a stagecoach in the Oregon Trail region, and Hickok becomes involved in a rescue mission after learning of a woman with scarlet fever stranded near Fort Jefferson. After tracking the raiders through the mountains for days, Hickok confronts a band of renegade soldiers and Injun warriors, vowing to save the lives he promised to protect and eliminate the threat they pose.

Wild Bill Hickok

Wild Bill Hickok arrives at the silver mining camp of Elite to stop Sulphur John Evans, a ruthless outlaw who's been raiding freight wagons carrying ore for six straight weeks. After a clever ambush using a mirage fails to fool the gang, Evans grows desperate and sets the forest ablaze, trapping the wagon train in a deadly inferno as they attempt to reach safety.

Wild Bill Hickok

Wild Bill Hickok rides south on a military dispatch in 1866, witnessing the expansion of the Kansas-Pacific Railroad—and spotting an opportunity that could transform the cattle-flooded Texas plains into fortune. When outlaws and later territorial inspectors threaten a pioneering cattle drive meant to connect Texas beef with eastern markets, Wild Bill must fight his way through gun battles, Indian raids, and a flooded river to prove the trail can work. A rousing frontier tale of vision, gunplay, and the birth of the great cattle drives.

The Mysterious Trader

Jeff Venture

Jeff Venture finds himself caught in the middle of a dangerous conspiracy when a mysterious fur trader arrives at Fort Raymond with suspicious cargo and shadowy ties to the hostile Black Hawk tribe. When a settler's child falls gravely ill and Jeff secretly follows his friend Bob on a desperate ride to fetch a distant doctor, the two are captured and discover that the trader has been supplying rifles to the Indians in exchange for furs—setting up a devastating attack on the stockade. Now bound and facing a brutal fate, Jeff and Bob must find a way to survive and expose the traitor before the Black Hawks can carry out their plan.

The Bannock Rebellion
