Synopsis

Louis L’Amour’s Lost Treasures is a project created to release some of the author’s more unconventional manuscripts from the family archives.

Matt Bardoul was a good man to have as a friend and a bad one to make trouble with. He was also a single-minded drifter—until he met his match in an outspoken beauty named Jacquine Coyle. She was headed into the Bighorn Mountains with her father and an expedition in search of gold. After Matt signs on to join them, he discovers that there is a group of outlaws in the party—gunfighters and thieves that Matt wouldn’t trust for a minute. At first it’s unclear what they are planning, but before long Matt realizes that he’s the only man standing between innocent people and a brutal conspiracy of greed, lust, and cold-blooded murder.

In Louis L’Amour’s Lost Treasures: Volumes 1 and 2, Beau L’Amour takes the reader on a guided tour through many of the finished and unfinished short stories, novels, and treatments that his father was never able to publish during his lifetime. L’Amour’s never-before-seen first novel, No Traveller Returns, faithfully completed for this program, is a voyage into danger and violence on the high seas.

Additionally, many beloved classics are being rereleased with an exclusive Lost Treasures postscript featuring previously unpublished material, including outlines, plot notes, and alternate drafts. These postscripts tell the story behind the stories that millions of readers have come to know and cherish.

All's well that ends well. I'm not a fan of the genre, but at least L'Amour is readable and reads quickly, maki......more

Goodreads review by Taylor on July 03, 2022

I will never stop reading Louis L’Amour. This particular one is my favorite and I honest to god cannot pinpoint why, but I suggest you take my word for it and read it. The men are rugged-don’t-touch-a-woman-gun-slinging kind of men who are generally covered in dirt and get shot like once a book, and......more

Goodreads review by Ken on August 18, 2015

This is L'Amour's first novel that was not serialized in western pulps. Actually it was published in England and not published in the US until 1976. The author blended historical figures and events into his plot and story line very well although a few timelines of historical characters are out of li......more

Matt Bardoul joins Jacquine Coyle and her father on a gold hunting expedition. Within the group is a band of outlaws with hidden motives including murder. As usually for L'Amour, this is a well crafted story with realistic places.......more

Goodreads review by Katrina on January 04, 2025

Best Louis L’Amour I’ve read so far. The philosophical, tenacious gunman was endearing to me, despite his thinking that you should just tell a woman you are going to marry her instead of asking her (he was joking…right?). I will reread this one for sure.......more
