Wild Bill Hickok

Wild Bill Hickok's reputation for maintaining the peace faces its first true test when a troublemaker named Jack Strawhan and his gang turn a quiet western town into a powder keg in 1869. After a brutal fight settles the immediate conflict, Strawhan vows revenge—but Wild Bill remains confident the man won't have the nerve to try again. Months later, however, Strawhan's patience and hidden anger are about to prove just how wrong that confidence might be.

The Killer Stallion

Rocky LaneBlackjack

Marshal Rocky Lane faces off against one of the frontier's most vicious outlaws—not just Sid Feder himself, but the killer-stallion Red Mane, a mount so ornery and savage that it does most of Feder's dirty work, striking down express riders and lawmen alike. When Rocky and his own stallion Blackjack track the pair to their mountain hideout, man meets man and horse meets horse in a brutal showdown that will determine who survives the encounter. It's a clash of wills and teeth where loyalty to one's mount might be the only thing that matters.

Did Camels Ever Travel Our Great Western Deserts?
1 pp · non-fiction; western-frontier

Before the Civil War, the U.S. Army experimented with camels as pack animals for the western deserts, hoping their endurance would outmatch the traditional army mule. The camels' soft, sand-adapted feet proved ill-suited to the rocky terrain of America's western landscape, however, ultimately making them impractical for frontier service. This illustrated feature explores a surprising but short-lived chapter in American military history.
