SOME SAID HE WAS A BAD MAN, SOME SAID HE WAS A GOOD MAN, BUT ONE THING WAS CERTAIN-HE WAS THE LAST MAN YOU WANTED TO CHALLENGE.
The first shots of the Civil War echoed opportunity to young Ben Thompson. The same traits that had earned him notoriety as a civilian-steady nerves and deadly aim-could win him respect as a soldier. For a while he found it, riding with the famous Second Regiment, Texas Mounted Rifles. But it was in the murderous gambling dens south of the Rio Grande that Ben Thompson made his reputation.
That reputation would follow him for the rest of his life: as he stared down Wild Bill Hickok in the saloons of Abilene, Kansas; as he battled for control of Colorado's railroads alongside Bat Masterson; and as he cleaned up Austin's streets as a tough-as-nails lawman. He only wanted respect for himself and his family, but it seemed that every cowboy seeking to make a name for himself would go looking for Ben Thompson...and all those names ended up marking fresh graves.
BASED ON THE TRUE STORY OF ONE OF THE GREATEST GUNFIGHTERS IN THE OLD WEST, PART OF THE WESTERNERS TRILOGY THAT INCLUDES GUN JUSTICE AND THE OUTLAW TRAIL.
