  • "A collection of short stories by Louis L'Amour, each showcasing his powerful and compelling vision of the American West, which he called 'a big country needing big men and women to live in it'. Vividly bringing the West to life, these stories include the tale of a man who has to fight to stay alive, a drifter wanting to settle on a homestead, and a young gunfighter forced to shoot a man."

  • "In "The Black Rock Coffin Makers," Jim Gatlin finds himself in the small cattle town of Tucker, where an attempt is made on his life. Now all he can do is fight to stay alive. "Grub Line Rider" tells the story of drifter Kim Sartain who happens upon a beautiful piece of grassland, and sets off a chain reaction when he decides to homestead on that range. Matt Sabre is a young gunfighter in "Ride, You Tonto Raiders." Forced to shoot a man, he's shocked when, on his deathbed, the man gives him $5,000 and begs him to take the money to his wife. Guilt, regret and a fierce will to do the right thing lead him to make that ride."
