Seven hours of old-school Western entertainment!
Six short stories by Louis L'Amour and 2 longer ones by Max Brand are featured on six cassettes adding up to almost seven hours of listening time. Each story is a gem. Purchased for the Louis L'Amour stories, I found my greatest pleasure in the "new-to-me" Max Brand tales. Excellent narrators on each one!
The collection includes the following titles with the synopsis of each from the back of the box.
Riding for the Brand by Louis L'Amour - Jed Asbury assumes a dead man's identity, hoping to cash in his big homestead and a comfortable life in the Old West.
McQueen of the Tumbling K by Louis L'Amour - McQueen, foreman of the Tumbling K Ranch must fight a ruthless gang of outlaws to save himself, the ranch, and its beautiful owner.
Law of the Desert Born by Louis L'Amour - Shad Marone is a framed gunfighter who, in self-defense killed the wrong man, the sheriff's brother. Now he is on the run and must outwit his ruthless trackers. (Great ending!)
Range Jester by Max Brand - Three men came over the horizon. Rance Tucker, a rancher, with a double-barrelled shotgun by his side. Up the valley rode Tom London, a high-stakes gambler. The third, Barry Home, walked in over the flats from the railroad. Home, Tucker, and London are all headed for a confrontation in the town of Loomis - and not all of them will live to see the morning.
Forgotten Treasure by Max Brand (and my FAVORITE!) - The Dikkons and the Quinces have always been mortal enemies. Now there's only one Quince left - and he's determined to pay the Dikkons back for the wrongs they have done. In a fall from a horse, he loses his memory, and finds himself at the mercy of the Dikkons clan. It is a dilemma made worse when love blossoms between Barney Quince and Louise Dikkon - a love that some are determined to keep from flowering.
Black Rock Coffin Makers by Louis L'Amour - Mistaken identity leads to danger. Jim Gatlin must decide to stay and claim a ranch from desperate men who want it or from the beautiful girl who calls it home.
Trail to Pie Town by Louis L'Amour (Loved this one!) - While on the run, Dusty Barron meets a pretty girl and helps her get the land that's rightfully hers.
Mistakes Can Kill You by Louis L'Amour - Johnny is determined to bring Sam Redline back alive, along with the money to give the girl he secretly loves.
Try them.... you'll love 'em!
