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.

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.

Largely unknown except in a few law enforcement circles, Jelly Bryce was in the forefront of the conflict during America's gangster era. Many of his life's adventures read like tales of fiction but they aren't. While others posed for the cameras and gave press interviews, this is one of the men who really did the job. As an Oklahoma State Game Ranger, Oklahoma City Police Detective and FBI Agent for over 30 years, Bryce was the man responsible for creating the FBI's first firearms training program, developing their concealed holster, their fast-draw techniques and personally trained hundreds of their agents. Hired by the FBI without any college, his training duties were incidental. He was involved in 19 shootings in the line of duty. In one, he confronted a gangster pointing a loaded gun at him and shot the man five times before he could pull the trigger.
