Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome to the wild, wild west. Old Laramie, cook for the cowpunchers at the Lazy G Ranch, happens to be in the right place at the right time to stop bandits from attacking a Spanish - speaking family with Aztec roots. The family offers Laramie a silver - mounted quirt as thanks, telling him the small horsewhip will make him a big man.Though he'd never really thought of himself as anything other than old, Laramie accepts the idea that the mysterious quirt holds special Aztec magic; in fact, he thinks, with the quirt in his hands, he's now invincible. To prove this claim, Laramie sets out on a series of adventures showing that the quirt has given him extraordinary newfound bravery and skill - or has it? ALSO INCLUDES THE WESTERN STORIES ''VENGEANCE IS MINE!'' AND ''STACKED BULLETS'' ''...is pure entertainment from first page to last with that L. Ron Hubbard touch giving this tale an enduring reading engagement from beginning to end.'' -
