Silver Showdown

It's 1861,and Skye Fargo encounters outlaws shooting up a 3 wagon ore train.Not one to pass on an injustice,he comes to their aid and saves the day and a few lives.He escorts the Colonel and his ore into Las Vegas;but it is a far cry from what it has become today. It doesn't take long for The Trailsman to get involved deeply in a local situation of Old West Gold Mining ,complicated by a vendetta of Mexicans. This all leads to some real fast action manhunts,shootouts,and even an outnumbered,fight to the finish, in a canyon,where it seem Fargo has finally about to meet his demise. It is a well constructed story,has lots of action and interesting characters. There is not much in the way of history ,other than to see what Las Vegas was like when it was a tiny mining town.While there is lots of action,the writing is good and keeps moving right along;there is not a lot of great one liners or colorful language or descriptions;but that is more the norm with this series.
