Summary

In "The Lion Hunter and Lady," Cat Morgan is plying his trade, trying to bag a mountain lion alive in order to sell it to a circus or zoo. As he and Long John William try to lure the cat from a tree, they're interrupted by a lynch posse led by Karl Dorfman, who accuses Cat and Long John of running off his horse herd - and Dorfman intends to hang them right where they stand! "The Trail to Peach Meadow Cañon" tells of Mike Bastian, who has been raised by an outlaw chief, Ben Curry, and trained in frontier skills by Curry's most trusted associates. Ben has decided it's time to retire, but is frustrated by the lack of criminal ambition shown by his own son. Jed Ashbury was stripped and forced to run the gauntlet by the Indians in "Riding for the Brand." He ran it so well that he escaped with only some minor wounds. Able to outfit himself from the contents of a covered wagon that had been attacked and left behind, Jed also learns what the mission of those killed in the attack was, and determines to push forward with it, regardless of the consequences
