THE GUNS OF HAMMER — Edwin Booth

THIS RANCHER HAD TO BATTLE SHADOW-RIDERS FROM THE PAST! Miles North's father, the rugged old ruler of the Hammer ranch, had suddenly saddled up and ridden away without trace or explanation. At the same time, just as young Miles found himself in a showdown fight to hold the mighty range, a group of ornery strangers rode into the land, lined themselves up alongside Hammer's foes, and started to close in. But Miles was no quitter. He knew that even though the odds against him had doubled, there was at least one way to save his hide and his father's holdings. It would involve taking a backtrail into the distant past—one that would lead either to utter disgrace or to the kind of discovery that would bring all The Guns of Hammer into thundering action! But if he took that path Miles North would face a greater danger than he had ever known – because he had forgotten the rangeland adage: old bandits never die.
