The story is replete with adventurous moments and terrific action. In trans
cribing the novel to the screen, the activity of the plot has been greatly en
hanced. Buck is just the kind of man you would imagine the hero to be. He
is rugged, lives and breathes the great outdoors, and conducts himself like a
true westerner. The big Fox sta?s forte is performing hazardous deeds. The
present story gives hijn ample opportunity to wade literally through peril
ous ventures. There are fights aplen-ty hard fast rides more fights.
