It was a name that caused the most hardened gunmen to
break out in a cold sweat. Chick Bowdrie. He could have
ridden the outlaw trail, but the Texas Rangers recruited
him because they didn't want to have to fight against
him. Pursuing the most wanted men in the Southwest he
knew all too well the dusty trails, the bitter cattle
feuds, the desperate killers and the quiet, weather-beaten,
wind-blasted towns that could explode into actions with
the wrong word. He had sworn to carry out the law, but
there were times when he had to apply justice with his
fists and his guns. They called in the Rangers to handle
the tough ones and there was never a Ranger tougher or
smarter than Bowdrie.
