Range Rebel — Gordon D. Shirreffs

It was hell with the hide off … But Dave Yeamans had asked for it. His very first day as top kick of the Double-W he had to take on Shorty Ganoe in a bloody fight men were to remember for years. Next day he had a gang of them to take on in a blazing gunfight that was to set fire to the whole valley.

Dave was going to stick it out. Until now he had always been an outlier, a lone wolf who wouldn't stay with the pack. Now he had something to fight for. Every day the going got rougher but Dave got ornerier and ornerier. He was staying on as Double-W's top man and he was going to lick hell out of the whole bunch.
