"'The cowards never started and the weak died on the way' - but Tom Collins got there, the young bull-whacker and adventurer who went with the first white men to Colorado. That was the territory where the pioneer had to show more fighting spirit than anywhere else, and Tom's story is full of the adventure, romance and danger that William MacLeod Raine knows how to write. Colorado is a story of feuds, fights and never ceasing action, of a lone youth's stand against a band of desperadoes on the Overland Trail, a struggle that rises to an exciting climax in a duel between Tom and the leader of the gang. Part of this story is drawn from history; Slade the man-killer, who had twenty-eight notches on his gun in '59, is a real character. All of it is authentic - the epic story of the birth of Colorado."
