Synopsis

Louis L’Amour’s tales of adventure cannot be surpassed for sheer storytelling excitement, and they stand as a testament to his legendary appeal. Here are timeless stories of danger and daring, wanderlust and heroism, filled with ordinary men and women facing often insurmountable challenges with courage, dignity, honor–and heart.
Perhaps never before has a single volume contained so many breathtaking thrills. These adrenaline-laced tales of mystery, suspense, murder, and survival never let up and will keep your heart pounding long after the last word.
From those numbering a few intense minutes to novella-length works, the tales in this action-packed anthology bear all the trademarks of the master’s touch–the historical accuracy, memorable characters, and timeless themes that have earned Louis L’Amour his unique place among American writers.
