When John Clayborn (John Wayne) was a child, he witnessed his parents being murdered by Alexander Stiles (Cy Kendall), the developer who wanted control over their land. Clayborn has grown up with one goal -- to get revenge on Stiles. He becomes a lawyer, but, when the judge won't find Stiles guilty, Clayborn resorts to other methods of retaliation. He enlists other men who have been wronged by Stiles and together they take their guns and embark on a mission to hunt him down.
John Wayne as a level-headed lawyer who wants revenge makes "King of the Pecos" entertaining,plus the plot is quite involving with some shoot em up touches and good landscape. Definitely a better Wayne early western.
