Hi-yo Trio, away! No, this book is not about the Lone Ranger. Joe, Fred and Sam find themselves swept away to the Old West. In fact, they find themselves on the Chisholm Trail rubbing elbows with a group of cowboys. First they are poisoned by trail chow, they almost get killed by a stampede of angry cattle.
