内容简介:
In the title story of this trio, Feud on the Mesa concerns two saddle mates, Rufe Miller and Jud Hudson, who committed an ill-advised stagecoach robbery. They stumble onto Cain Mesa, location of a ranch owned by Elisabeth Cane. Arlen Chase, an enterprising cowman, is trying to force Elisabeth to leave. When Rufe's horse is shot by one of Chase's men, the two propose going to work for Elisabeth to help her in her conflict with Chase. In Renegades Beat the War Drum, the frontiersman Caleb Dorn, known among the Indians as Silent Outcast, tries to negotiate with Red Sleeves and his band of Apaches who have surrounded the town of Denton and cut off all access. In Texas Herds Bring Death, Caleb has moved north into cattle country where a Texas herd is not permitted by the Crow nation to have access to the trail through their land.
