Long-running series of Westerns
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Main character
John Slocum is among the toughest of gunfighters. He is a mostly decent man who will do whatever it takes to survive life in the Western Frontier. A Confederate soldier who lost his ancestral home to carpetbaggers after the Civil War, Slocum left the South, never to return.
He has been a soldier, slave, stagecoach driver, shotgun guard, bank robber, lawman, pioneer, cowboy, shepherd, poor man, rich man, gambler, and drifter. His adventures occur in most of the American West.
