The High Chaparral ...is the bid of a family seeking roots in the newly won West
...is the threat to the new settlers from Mexicans and Indians
...and spells adventure in the Arizona territory of 1870

Kilroy is a saddle tramp who walks into the High Chaparral, his saddle over his shoulder. Buck knows something of his past and is uneasy, Blue admires his ability with a gun, Big John his skill at the chess-board. He soon becomes a popular and valuable member of the team, but the past has a way of catching up with a man.
