Long Synopsis:  FROM THE BACK COVER: Armed only with a Colt rifle, a Bowie 
knife, and courage as big as the West, Ten Chisholm, the bold, half-breed son 
of Indian scout Jesse Chisholm, leaves New Orleans with a price on his head.  
His only crime was loving the beautiful daughter of a powerful New Orleans 
gambler who has promised her to a wealthy man she hates.  With a team of 
battle-toughened cowboys and ex soldiers, and a vow to return to Priscilla and 
make her his wife, Ten rides into the harsh Texas brakes and the heart of 
Comanche country.  Now, he must round up wild longhorns and set off across the 
Red River, through a thousand miles of swollen rivers, angry Comanche's and 
treacherous outlaw attacks on a brazen quest to open a new trail to Kansas on 
the savage frontier.
