McCaslinsInVEN

This is the first story in which a McCaslin appears as a major character. As in the other Unvanquished stories, the McCaslin is "Uncle Buck." Still an loud, profane old man, he insists on joining Bayard and Ringo in the quest to avenge Granny's death, and proves to be as accomplished at hunting outlaws as "Uncle Ike" has shown himself to be hunting game in earlier stories. But no information about his background is provided.
