Hugh Travis, come to Arizona to claim his share of his uncle's property, is forced to discard his peaceable intent and prove his fighting tallow when the ranchers' feud with the Caldwells flames over murder, land and water stealing. Apache Basin soon finds out that he would rather hang his hide on a fence than stay in the corral as he gets desperadoes for breakfast and tames a gal to his taste. Agile and amiable.
