Summary

And the wind blows free vividly recall the great days of the South West, when the vast herds were rolling up from Texas on the Chisholm Trail through the Indian Territory to railways in Kansas, more than a million head of longhorns in a summer. It is the story mainly of Jim Wade, known and respected in all the Kansas trail towns, and young Joel Hardy his companion on that adventurous and dangerous journey into the Indian Territory, that vast land which at that time was the home of turbulent Indians and murderous outlaws.
