The Hell Bent Kid was selected by the Western Writers of America as one of the twenty-five best Western novels ever written.
It was adapted into the 1958 movie From Hell to Texas.
Tot is our Kid (18). Mild manner and can handle a rifle better than most. Tot killed a man from the Boyd family in self defense.
