Grand Duke Leonid of Russia is in Washington to sign a commercial treaty on behalf of the Tsar. But this larger-than-life aristocrat has read too much Fennimore Cooper and wants to visit the West. The US government is forced to agree to his whim-but wisely chooses Lucky Luke to escort him to the cattle capital of the West: Abilene. A good thing, too, because the Russian Grand Duke encounters real American desperadoes on his visit!
Bob, Grat, Bill and Emmett Dalton were fearsome bandits; terrors of the Old West; legends in their own time. Until Lucky Luke put a final end to their reign of evil.
Joe, Jack, William and Averell Dalton, on the other hand, aren't even footnotes in the back pages of newspapers. Bumbling, blundering and hapless, they nonetheless vow to emulate-and avenge-their prestigious relatives. But if their cousins couldn't best the Lonesome Cowboy, do they really stand a chance?
