The Big Hunt

by J. T. Edson

No man walks away . . . For years, there have been none better at the trade than buffalo-skin hunter Kerry Barran. But he's taken part in too much killing -- of beast and man alike -- and now he wants to lay down his gun for good. But the hunter's got powerful enemies in Otley Creek -- and a "partner" who's unhappy about Kerry's refusal to finish one more job. If teaching the stubborn loner a lesson means breaking his bones, then so be it. In a town owned by his adversaries -- with a ruthless gang of toughs on his tail -- Kerry Barran's going to need all the help he can muster. And he's found it in the most unlikely quarters: with a dapper English dude and his sister . . .with a Texas gunslinger . . . and with a whip-wielding hellcat who goes by the name "Calamity."

Big Iron

by Lancer

And with the railroad coming to Black Creek, Kansas, the town becomes a magnet to every whore, tinhorn, outlaw, and killer in the territory. A gang of human vultures, led by the shadowy, murderous Harvey Kidd, has started a bloody guerrilla war with the Union Pacific Railroad, robbing payrolls, killing workers, and burning bridges. Black Creek is next on Kidd's list. Into this explosive mix rides human powder keg Dane Bowman, a mysterious stranger with a big iron on his hip. Lightning-fast and leather-tough, Bowman whipsaws outlaws and lawmen alike, taking on all comers, turning Black Creek into a corpse-strewn battleground. It all leads up to a showdown on Boot Hill that unleashes a bloody storm of lead destined to become a legend of the West....

Big Red, A Wild Stallion

by Rutherford Montgomery

There was a time when there were many wild horses on our Western ranges. They had their beginnings mostly from horses shipped into this country by the Spanish explorers. Bands of horses were allowed to run loose so that they could forage for grass. Many of them simply deserted the camp and trail herds and became wild. Later on, economic changes added to these wild bands. When a railroad was built into the Comstock Lode country in Nevada, the Wells’ Fargo freight and passenger stages had to give up the log trail routes. This left them with a lot of fine horses which they could not sell. Many were just turned loose to become wild horses. Trouble came to the wild herds when meat hunters found they could get good prices for wild horses from processors of dog and cat food. All the horses cost the meat hunters was the trouble of catching them. With trucks and planes available, the slaughter began. Today wild stallions like Big Red are faced with a desperate problem: how to save the small bands of mares they still have in their harems. This is the story of one wild stallion and his mares. Like the bison which were exterminated on the wild range, Big Red faces extermination without even the protection finally given to a few herds of buffalo.
