East Texas wasn’t much of a home for Cullen Baker. Few liked him, and some even tried to kill him. Yet after three hard years of wandering, he’s come back to farm the land that’s rightfully his. Only Cullen’s in for an unwelcome homecoming: his neighbors have long memories, the Reconstructionists have greedy hearts, and his worst enemy has teamed up with a vicious outlaw. But Cullen isn’t about to back down. Instead, he’s intent on perfecting a new way of gunfighting: the fast draw. And now, with enemies closing in on three sides and threatening the woman he loves, he’ll have to be faster than lightning—and twice as deadly—just to survive.

Chic Gaylord's Handgunner's Guide (first published in 1960) is the definitive manual on modern handguns and their use, written by a man who was a quick-draw record holder and an expert on combat shooting. This guidebook gives you step-by-step analysis and advice on: - choosing a handgun - adapting a gun to your individual needs - drawing and firing for speed and for accuracy - self-defense and combat methods - holsters and ammunition for handguns - the psychology of gun-fighting And there is a fascinating chapter on the great gun-fighters of the Old West. The copious illustrations clarify every detail of the text. Chic Gaylord (1914-1992) was famous across the country for the holsters that he hand-made in his shop on the west side of New York City. Equally well known for his speed and accuracy with many types of handguns, he demonstrated his prowess in public exhibitions and on television shows. His tips and advice on guns, holsters and ammunition evoked grateful praise from scores of police officers and interested citizens. The essence of Gaylord's accumulated hand-gun wisdom is distilled between the covers of this book.
