The Character
Sergeant William Preston is a heroic police officer, who is tasked with policing the wilds of the Canadian frontier alone, accompanied only by his dog "Yukon King" and his horse, "Rex". Each episode has him battling a new crisis, whether it be tracking down a murderer, a gang of thieves, or claim jumping miners. His dog, "Yukon King", is at times a central character, with several episodes revolving around an event centering on him. During the course of the series, Preston successfully puts down a rebellion, and captures assassins.
