Plot Synopsis
In 1891 Wyoming, the three Hammett brothers, Cain, Harry and Dale find themselves in the middle of a rapidly escalating range war that pits old time cattle barons against homesteaders who have moved onto the grazing lands. The cattle barons, urged on by Lord Peter an English nobleman with extensive holdings, commission a hired gun who is given instructions to drive the small holders out through fear and intimidation... but the Hammett brothers, each for his own reasons, choose not to run. The cattle barons, fed up with the lack of results, decide to declare all out war and import two dozen Texas gunmen to lead the assault, igniting the legendary Johnson Country range war.
