Young Jim and the Card Sharks
7 pp · western-frontier

Young Jim Bowie barely escapes the frontier without losing his shirt when he boards a riverboat headed for New Orleans—only to discover that a gang of card sharks led by Flip Windom has already fleeced a young man and his sister of their family's money. Recognizing the con, Jim decides to take on Windom at his own crooked game, drawing on tricks he learned from a reformed gambler, and turns the tables to recover what was stolen. With cunning, quick wits, and the threat of his pistol, this seasoned frontiersman proves he's more than a match for any river rat working the Lower Mississippi.

Dangerous Enemy
4 pp · western-frontier

Jim Bowie clashes with Charles Evarts, a brash newcomer who's carved out a reputation as a dangerous gunman on the Texas frontier—and the two keep finding themselves at odds despite Bowie's best efforts to avoid trouble. When Evarts' reckless nature pulls him into a dangerous spot, Bowie has to decide how much he's willing to help the firebrand who's been looking for a fight since he arrived in town.

The Famine of the White Wolf
7 pp · western-frontier

Scout Jim Bowie finds a tribe starving after a white wolf pack mysteriously drives away all the game from their hunting grounds, threatening to spark a desperate war between the Indians and an approaching wagon train. When Bowie uncovers a renegade's scheme to manipulate both sides for control of the valley, he must outwit the man and his wolf pack before hunger and deception destroy everything. A frontier tale of hidden motives, unlikely allies, and the lengths one man will go to restore peace.

Sunset
1 pp · humor; western-frontier
Chief Gray Matter

Chief Gray Matter welcomes a sore tenderfoot from the dude ranch to the frontier in this 1957 humor tale, offering some wry frontier wisdom after the newcomer complains about his first full day in the saddle. The punchline lands in a single, perfectly timed gag that plays on the poor visitor's obvious discomfort.

Wave of the Future
5 pp · western-frontier

When a fever outbreak strikes the frontier settlement, Doctor Stephen Burns searches for a cure while his wife Bess—a refined Eastern woman who'd resisted the harsh frontier life—discovers she has more to contribute to this raw new world than she ever imagined. Together they race to prepare a remedy from the wilderness itself, testing whether knowledge and determination can turn the tide against sickness and doubt. By story's end, Bess learns that the frontier's hardships have their own kind of nobility, and that progress itself depends on people willing to get their hands dirty.
