With more than 120 titles still in print, Louis L'Amour
is recognized the world over as one of the most prolific
and popular American authors in history. Though he met
with phenomenal success in every genre he tried, the form
that put him on the map was the short story. Now this
great writer--who the Wall Street Journal recently compared
with Jack London and Robert Louis Stevenson--will receive
his due as a great storyteller. This volume kicks off
a series that will, when complete, anthologize all of
L'Amour's short fiction, volume by handsome volume.
Here, in Volume TWO, is a treasure-trove of 29 frontier
tales for his millions of fans and for those who have
yet to discover L'Amour's thrilling prose--and his vital
role in capturing the spirit of the Old West for generations
to come.
