A TIME FOR VIOLENCE

The Texas panhandle, in the late 19th century, when outlawry was a business and the attempt to impose law if not order frames the story of Bart Wagner, fiddle-footed, and Catherine Lewis, an old man's wife- just widowed. Bart's defense of Catherine- and her ranch -- against the predatory Jones gives him a chance to clear his own record and bring a lawless man to trial. Firm and forceful.
