Synopsis

Cattlemen ride alone across the open range under the deadly aim of roving desperadoes. . . . Gamblers stake their fortunes and their lives on a deck of cards. . . . Strong-willed señoritas seek independence through an enticing combination of beauty, audacity, and spirit. . . . Lawmen and outlaws walk the same dusty streets and speak a common language: Colt, Winchester, Smith & Wesson. Gritty, tough, and unflinchingly authentic, here is the West as it really was: a land where for every friend there is an enemy, for every handshake a fist, for every dispute a resolution—usually in an explosive showdown of blood and bullets. In these remarkable tales, Louis L’Amour—like the very heroes he depicts—blazes a trail across the American frontier and takes us on an unforgettable journey into the heart of our western heritage.

This is another group of short stories. The stories are good, but none stand out. I would rate this as an average for the master writer, so still better than many. He is a gifted short story writer.......more

This isn’t a collection of tales, but a dramatization of one story. I would have preferred a collection, as advertised, and a simple narration.......more

Goodreads review by Chuck on March 04, 2013

Whenever I read a L'Amour western I find myself critical because the western genre is so unpopular and unpolitically correct. But when I finish I realize that I really enjoyed the descriptions and his view of a beautiful country that was being settled before lawmen, judges and order were established......more
