Excerpt from The Lone Star Ranger What you say is all very well, uncle, returned Duane, but the only way out for me is to run, and I won't do it. Cal Bain and his outfit have already made me look like a coward. He says I'm afraid to come out and face him. A man simply can't stand that in this country. Besides, Cal would shoot me in the back some day if I didn't face him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
