About this book
"War paint by Robert Winchester" is a pulp western short story written in the late 1920s. Set on the Texas-Mexico border, it blends swift frontier action with a whirlwind romance, focusing on Texas Rangers, cross-border raids, and a willful society girl drawn into their dangerous world. The plot follows Elaine Webb, a wealthy New Yorker visiting her army-officer brother in Texas, who trades barbs—and sparks—with young Ranger Bud Yancey. After witnessing a sudden street gunfight that leaves Bud wounded, Elaine drifts closer to him, only to quarrel when he blocks her from driving into a fresh skirmish. Soon Garcia’s bandits mount a major raid; soldiers rush out, and Elaine, circling by back trails, stumbles upon Bud and Sam Earp, bloodied yet still pursuing the fleeing raiders above the Three C ranch. Lieutenant Webb and his men arrive in time to finish the fight.
