Trailsman 031: Six Gun

This is number 31 in The Trailsman series and was published in July,1984.It reads as well today as when it was first published. It is one of the early episodes in the seies that has been so popular that it has continued every month, and is now at number 305. This episode takes place on both sides of the border between Mexico and Texas; not far from Larado in 1864. Skye Fargo,The Trailsman,has agreed to bring a herd of prized Arabian horses from a ranch in Mexico for Bill Anderson in Kansas,who bought them.Anderson hopes these Arabians will help him become the leading breeder of fine horses in America. Sounds easy,except for French Soldiers,the rancher's daughter,Apaches,Mexican Rebels all intent to prevent Skye in his mission. The story is filled with good Old West shoot-outs,fights,and just about anything you could expect to happen. The stoty is full of suspense and action and keeps you glued to the story. Well written and gives a good idea of how tough things were in this area a year before the end of The Civil War. In this tale,just like recent ones, The Trailsman seems to face impossible situations and odds,but through skill and determination,comes out the winner. "The Trailsman,the man who could see where others only looked,his skills for sale but not his soul."
