  The Home of Great Western Fiction!
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
    
  
  
  When hard-traveling Tom Buchanan
  
  
  and his two-fisted saddle partner, Coco Bean, rode into El Paso, flush with
  the
  
  
  winnings from Coco’s last prize fight, they found Ebenezar Shaw, an
  
  
  old friend and proprietor of the Grace Stage Line, in some mean
  
  
  trouble with a greedy big businessman and his hired
  
  
  desperadoes.
  
  
  Buchanan and Coco
  
  
  used their
  
  
  loot to keep Ebenezar’s stage line from being grabbed up. Before
  
  
  long, however, Buchanan found himself high in the driver’s seat of
  
  
  a hurtling stagecoach. He whipped his team through a  
  
  
  crackling hail of bullets—and then went on to defend the spirit of
  
  
  home-grown enterprise from the back of a blazing gun!
