1. Gunman's Gold: Published - 1933
They talked about Shannigan in the gambling dens and honky-tonks. They said he was a man who'd wrestle with the devil or swim a river of blood...for money. So when Howison needed help to rescue the son of a friend from hanging, he called Shannigan. But the town was howling and Shannigan would have to act fast. Classic western by a bestselling author.
«The strategy of Lee Swain was simple. It consisted in being at the right place at the right time. He had managed to get there, through skillful planning, so often that he had stacked up what he considered a nest egg. He had done that in the Eastern States. When he wanted to make the nest egg grow into a whole brood of thriving birds, he decided to go West...»

«UNDOUBTEDLY Colonel Clisson was angry. All through the first day of the rodeo his anger grew, and on the second day it waxed mightily. He represented the whole of Texas and all of Texas ways, and it cut him to the very heart when he saw dally men from California and Nevada come into his territory and at his own pet rodeo, where he himself offered most of the prizes, carry away the glory and the hard cash.
The invaders had won at the shooting contest on the morning of the first day, distinguishing themselves with both rifle and revolver; on foot, kneeling, prone, or in the saddle on a moving horse, they had excelled the tie men in every respect.»
