Three stories of hard fighting, hard riding, and hard frontier living from the king of the modern western.
“A strong case may be made that L’Amour was the most popular American writer of the 20th century.”—The Wall Street Journal
Mistakes Can Kill You
As a boy, Johnny O’Day was saved from death when a couple took him into their home—yet he always harbored jealous resentment toward their biological son, Sam. But now Sam is in dire straits, and Johnny may be the only person who can come between his half brother and a pair of killers.
The Rider of Ruby Hills
Young cowboy Ross Haney is ready to settle down. But when a feud breaks out between the owners of two of the biggest spreads in Ruby Hills, it looks like the fair town is about to start raining lead. Ross has never been the kind to start trouble, but this time he’s got allies—and a plan.
The Man from Battle Flat
Krag Moran is a rider with no need for trouble, but that’s what he gets when he’s pulled into a range war between ranchers and homesteaders. The town is divided, and anyone caught in the middle won’t last long. And if Krag can’t stop the shooting, everyone is doomed.
Hailed by People magazine as “the kind of storyteller who makes the wolves come out of the woods to listen,” Louis L’Amour delivers old-fashioned action and adventure like no one else.
