'Jeff Deming returned to the Rocking-D Ranch after four years of college, hoping for the chance to implement some of the ideas he was sure would improve the ranch. But John Deming felt a man should prove himself first and had Jeff working like a hired hand. Jeff was quickly getting back in shape, but was still receiving a lot of "kidding" and the worst came from the foreman, Quinn Barker. Jeff had to admit he didn't like Barker, but his father swore by Barker as a "dang good man with cows." At the same time, John Deming was inclined to underestimate his son's ability and had considered Jeff's college education a waste of years and effort.' (Publication summary)
Sydney : Cleveland , 1954'The Bannerman business empire spread right across the west, but Yancey Bannerman, the oldest son of magnate C.B. Bannerman, wasn’t interested in all that wealth—at least, not if he had to sit behind a pile of ledgers and accounts to earn it. Yancey preferred the wide-open, adventurous life ... and that was why C.B. disowned him.
'To C.B.’s way of thinking, Yancey was little more than a black sheep. And anyway, he had another son, Chuck, and a daughter named Mattie, to rely on.
But C.B. should have looked a little closer to home to find the real black sheep of the family. Chuck was up to his eyes in gambling debts, and that made him a desperate man ... just desperate enough to try robbing the Governor of Texas himself!
Before he knew it, Yancey and his gun-swift partner, Johnny Cato, found themselves involved a plot to oust Governor Lester Dukes from power ... and by the end of it, each man had himself a new job—as one of the Governor’s go-anywhere, fight-anyone peacekeepers ... the Enforcers.'

Sydney : Cleveland , 1974'The cold-blooded murder of rancher Abe Summers led to a surprising discovery—a long-lost treasure of Spanish reàls, escudos, doubloons and pieces of eight!
'Abe’s land-grabbing neighbour, Nathan Cross, wanted that treasure all to himself, and was prepared to have his hired gun, Lang Brodie, kill to get it.
'But then Governor Dukes got involved, and quickly discovered that the coins were only half the story. There was something else still waiting to be unearthed, a treasure of far greater value than the coins ...
'So Dukes sent his two top Enforcers, Yancey Bannerman and Johnny Cato, down to the Sabine River country to help Abe’s college professor daughter find ... The Guns of Texas!'
