Shafter Range : a western duo
- "This Western duo opens with "What Colour is Heaven?". Rick Candleman is convinced that the Iron Hat range holds bad luck. His younger brother, Joe, has joined the Obrion gang of border raiders. His older brother is locked in a vicious battle with Rufus Madden who wants to destroy the Candlemans. Rick must turn to Joe for help but Joe has his own connection to Madden. Mike Shafter in Shafter Range was a boy of nine when his mother sold out and left the country around Azul. Now, 20 years later, his mother dead, Mike Shafter returns. But he is riding into the worst kind of trouble. The head of the Wolcott clan dies, setting off a mad scramble among factions that want control of the Wolcott holdings. Mike Shafter knows that in this struggle is the answer to his father's death."
- "This book features two retitled shorter works, What Color is Heaven? (published in 1942 as the rather dated Those Fighting Gringo Devils) and Shafter Range (1961, as Riding High). In Heaven, Rick Candleman is worried about his brothers, one of whom has joined a gang of border rustlers, the other being embroiled in a nasty war with an enemy of the Candlemans. When one brother is murdered, Rick must team up with the other to find the killer. In Range, Mike Shafter returns to the town of Azul after two decades to find that the death of a local magnate has sparked a vicious free-for-all for control of his assets, and Mikes familys land is smack dab in the middle of it."
