Summary "Rustlers Beware!" by Arthur Chapman is a thrilling western novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins with Milton Bertram, a young Texan who joins a group of rough cowpunchers under the dubious leadership of Asa Swingley, drawn by the prospect of adventure but wary of his companions, particularly the notorious Tom Hoog, known for his violent reputation. The narrative introduces themes of loyalty, morality, and the harsh realities of life in the American frontier, setting up an intense conflict between cattle rustlers and lawmen. At the start of the book, Bertram is drawn into a mysterious expedition disguised as a righteous cause to combat cattle rustling in Wyoming. As he prepares for the journey, he meets a young woman named Alma Caldwell, who expresses her concern over the dangerous character of the men he is about to join. Following a series of events where Bertram saves Alma from missing her train, he learns about the violent realities awaiting them. Tension builds as their party confronts a lone defender at a cabin, leading to a brutal conflict that compels Bertram to question his allegiance and ultimately pushes him towards seeking his own path, straddling the line between justice and vengeance amidst the chaos of the frontier.
