Early in his career Louis L'Amour set out to create a cycle of stories that would document the life he had known while traveling the globe in the time between the two World Wars. It was an era that was vanishing even as he was experiencing it: a different sort of frontier, one where a man could travel without a passport and see a world that had yet to close its last borders or map its final unexplored places.

This edition of YONDERING finally gathers together all of those short stories into one volume, tales of Louis's firsthand experience as well as those of the sailors, miners, hobos, and soldiers of fortune he met along the way.

This special Audiobook edition also includes archival audio and in-depth personal stories from the Louis L'Amour's Lost Treasures series.

"Over the years I have been proud to write about the men and women of the American frontier. But I have written many stories with entirely different settings which I have long wanted to share with my readers.

"I have collected some of these in YONDERING. They are glimpses of what my own life was like during the early years. Those were the rough years; often I was hungry, out of work and facing situations such as I have written about.

"Although these stories take place in a variety of locales, they are stories of people living under conditions similar to the way they might have lived on the frontier. I hope you'll enjoy YONDERING."

--Louis L'Amour

REVISED AND UPDATED!

"Placing all of Louis' "semiautobiographical short fiction" in one volume is especially important now because of the release of my father's first novel, NO TRAVELLER RETURNS, which is the final piece of the Yondering series."

--Beau L'Amour
