...through the terrors of testy Indians and the sudden, brutal raids of freebooters hired to steer the wagons back to Louisiana, where the blacks are needed on the farms. Much to his chagrin, Buck is abetted by a smarmy and slightly balmy preacher (Harry Belafonte) who has a fine eye for the ladies and a decided interest in storing up worldly goods...
