Description

The short stories of Louis L'Amour are the heart and soul of his life's work. This second volume of his collected stories brings together thirty more classic frontier tales that go far beyond the typical western. They embrace the universal themes of heroism, honor, sacrifice, and survival that L'Amour made uniquely his own. Inside you'll find adventures in individual courage- like that of a young man sent alone into a blizzard to face a deadly stampede, a lawman who finds the bullet-riddled body of an infamous Mexican bandit, or a rancher mercilessly hunted by enemies who'll stop at nothing-until he faces them. Featuring L'Amour's signature stories of Texas Ranger Chick Bowdrie, this collection captures men and women at the crossroads of friendship and suspicion, trust and betrayal, a handshake or a gun.

Reviews

"L'Amour never writes with less than a saddle creak in his sentences and more often with a desert heatwave boiling up from a sunbaked paragraph. A master storyteller.... for reading under the stars."Kirkus Reviews
