It's been ten years since Chase McAlister and Travis Ross fought in the war for Texas independence. They have a little ranch, but Travis is bored and drinks too much while Chase tries to keep him on task. One day someone from their past shows up and asks if they want to enlist to fight in the Mexican-American War. Well, what do you think they do?Chase has a score to settle with Chief Little Face, a half-Apache who tortured and killed Chase's parents, and sure enough, he's involved in the war. Travis still longs for Mercedes Rayo, the Mexican beauty he loved and lost. So the next thing you know the guys are involved in battles, gun-play, and all kinds of action.
