A genteel young Englishman arrives in California, where a trio of his father's old friends must teach him the ways of the West if he is to win the love of a rancher's beautiful daughter.
By his dying father's last wish Joe is sent to the Wild West to become a real guy. The dreamy young man despises guns and fights, likes poems and prefers bicycles to horses. Now his three teachers, footpads all of them, shall teach him otherwise. This doesn't work, until Joe has to defend himself against gunman Morton, who's jealous of Joe's love to rancher Ohlsen's beautiful daughter.—Tom Zoerner <Tom.Zoerner@informatik.uni-erlangen.de>
