  • "Presents a collection of twelve short stories by well-known western writer Louis L'Amour."@en
  • "Contains stories of the open West, a land where wanderers could find themselves a home, a home to fight for and sometimes to die for."
  • "Twelve stories, with the author's comments, deal with loyalty, gamblers, a cowboy who runs away from a gunfight, wagon trains of settlers, Texas rangers, Indians, and revenge."
  • "Louis L'Amour's Western stories are beloved worldwide. Now, collected together for the first time in a single volume, are three of his finest tales of the West. The texts have been restored to their original appearances in magazines.In “The Lion Hunter and the Lady," Cat Morgan is plying his trade—trying to bag a mountain lion alive in order to sell it to a circus or zoo. As he and Long John William try to lure the cat from a tree, they're interrupted by a lynch posse, the leader of which accuses Cat and Long John of running off his horse herd—and they intend to hang them right where they stan."@en

  • "The open West was a land where wanderers could find themselves a home-a home to fight for, to be changed by, sometimes to die for. Jed Ashbury was one such journeyman, taking on the identity of a dead man. Allen Ring was another: he'd won his plot of land in a card game only to find he had to win again with a gun. From a has-been boxer to a ranch hand taking on his bosses' troubles, the characters in these classic Louis L'Amour short stories are all "riding for the brand"--Staying loyal to what matters, staking the West with their courage and their blood."
