The only illustrations are a full page black line drawing on the title page plus three 1.5" square small vignettes on BOTH of the half title pages and head of the contents page.

DJ shows five open chips none more than 1" long plus the lower quarter of the dj backstrip is missing. These issues aren't a major deal due to the new protective, removable, white paper-backed mylar sleeve the jacket is now in. The lower 5/8" of the white dj backstrip paper liner has been trimmed to display the publisher's name there and 1 1/2" of the white paper liner is above it to cover the part of the galloping horse on the book spine because the dj spine has a different picture and there would be galloping horse legs and hooves below the illust of Red Clark on the dj. The Sheriff of Tahzo needed a man for a particular job - a man to go into a bad men's town and get the murderer of a girl. When he jailed a wild, redheaded cowboy who was all liquored up and trying to take his horse to bed with him, the sheriff didn't dream that he had found his man. But Red Clark was just the man. This light-hearted, devil-may-care tale of his invasion of Lelargo is as fast a saga of gunfire as you will find.

Although Red Clark aspired to become a peaceful citizen of the cattle town of Martinez, the red-headed cowboy was soon fated to earn the displeasure of a powerful cattle king; to start a 'ruckus' with a notorious killer; and to promise aid to a hunted outlaw. From then onwards Red Clark battled his way with fist and gun out of many tight corners, ending with one of the most amazing and thrilling gun-duels of his adventurous career.

He wanted to settle down, so he headed toward "Miz Dobbs'" Arrowhead ranch where he had spent his boyhood. It was hard luck that the Dobbs-Hepple feud between hard-riding, drinking, swearing, shooting, kind-hearted old Miz Dobbs and that casual, murderous female of the range , Mrs. Hepple, had just burst into flame again and he was just in time to lead the battle. Red's escapades in waging a range war and keeping his lady boss in a good humor make as joyously hair-raising adventures as any in his flaming career.
