Ranger Buck Duane Joins the Texas Border Fight
In 1875 Texas cow country Buck Duane, an outlaw hunter with a hidden code, travels from El Paso to Ord and Bradford to scout Cheseldine’s gang. Captain MacNelly offers a conditional pardon and Ranger service, urging Duane to infiltrate the rustlers and hunt the Big Bend band. Duane joins the Rangers and starts his perilous mission west of the Pecos.
