From the White Wolf catalog:
- Choose Your Friends Wisely
- In the Savage West, everybody's got a grievance, and everyone's totin' iron -- or silver -- and we don't mean coins! Know who's watchin' your back, 'cause we're talking life and death here: day-to-day life on the frontier and ways you can avoid day-to-day death there. All sorts, from sodbusters to Sioux warriors, from Silent Striders to Iron Riders, can use the wisdom we'll be sharin', so give heed.
