Quick-Trigger Country
A scrappy stray from Tombstone, Turkey Red grew up a nameless orphan. Then he hooked up with Curly Bill Graham's outlaw crew and made a name for himself in a hurry, in the thunder of man-size guns. But wholesale murder was out of Turk's line, so when range war flared he bucked the whole border gang alone - battling killers with guns and firsts to get back to the law's side alive!

Clem colt was a pseudonym for Nelson K. Nye. I haven't read anything else by him so don't know how typical this is of his writing. Although there are plenty of action scenes the plot proceeds either by coincidence or non sequitur, in other words it makes no damn sense. The narration at times reads as if it were copied from old newspaper articles or tourist brochures celebrating the good old days of Tombstone. We even have a Wyatt Earp sighting. The dialog is hokey and it was like listening to Billy Crystal and Jake Palance in the movie City Slickers - minus the humor. Did I mention it has plenty of action scenes? I didn't say they were great action scenes. The lead character's name is Turkey. Totally fits this book. Not recommended.
