Quote from inner flap of dust jacket:

NEVER in American history was there
a more ruthless gang of murderers
and thieves than the "road agents":  that
group of desperadoes who swarmed into 
Montana in the 1860's after gold was dis-
covered.  They held the land in terror, for
at that time there were no laws to cope 
with killers - not until Montana's famous
Vigilantes took over.
  This is the story of the courageous
Vigilantes, a secret organization made up
of those honest men who took the law
into their own hands to pass the death
sentence on notorious lawbreakers.  It is 
also the tale of a young boy, Dan Shelby,
who lived in Montana during those dan-
gerous days, and of the part he played in
tracking down the villains and bringing
law and order to the land he loved.
