"Red Blizzard" is set in the Dakota Territory during the conflict between Red Cloud, Crazy Horse, and the U.S. Army. Pawnee Perez is an army scout, distrusted by some of the officers and hated by the Sioux. He's also the only man who can make his way through the hostile Sioux surrounding the fort and ride for military reinforcements. "Tales of the Texas Rangers" is an account of the Forty Year War the oldest law enforcement agency on the North American continent waged against the Comanches, military invasions from Mexico, and pursuit of frontier thieves and murderers like John Wesley Hardin and Sam Bass. "The Hunkpapa Scout" is Sunkele Sha, a full-blood who was a trail guide for a wagon train before it was wiped out by the warring Sioux. Escaping with his life, he attempts to warn a U.S. Cavalry troop.
