In peerless fiction spanning five decades and as many
continents, Louis L’Amour has proven himself the preeminent
storyteller of the American experience. Whether set aboard a ship
trapped in enemy seas or amidst a showdown in the deserts of Death
Valley, his stories brilliantly capture the heroic and indomitable
spirit of our great land. From The Listening Hills The twelve
stories in this collection–appearing for the first time in one
complete volume–run the spectrum of human emotions as they
transport us from the fading majesty of the Old West to a
small-town football field to the lonely canyons of one man’s mind.
These classic tales of adventure, mystery, mysticism, and suspense
epitomize the uniquely American yearning for connection and roots,
justice and love, as only L’Amour can. Here is a diverse group of
heroes and traitors, outlaws and lawmen, the innocent, the guilty,
and those who operate in the shadowy territory outside the reach of
justice. The wastelands of Death Valley form the backdrop for the
tale of a desperate man who leads his pursuers into a desert
trap–where heat and thirst are his only weapons. A rodeo rider
framed for a crime he didn’t commit takes a wild ride on a
legendary bronco that may help him catch the real killers. An
American pilot flies Russian and British agents into the
labyrinthine forests of Asiatic Russia–only to discover that one
of them is a traitor. A hit man discovers the fatal limits of
friendship; and a quest for revenge becomes a frantic race to find
a cache of gold hidden in the drifting sands of the Southwest. And
in a powerful and moving parable, an Indian boy must lead his
family across a drought-ravaged land with nothing to guide him but
his faith. The gripping title story counts down the final hours of
a wounded man struggling to fend off his enemies and certain death.
Before time runs out, he must finish the most important task of his
life: a letter to his unborn son that will vindicate the family
name.Filled with a special brand of passion and drama, From the
Listening Hills is an exemplary collection that showcases the
enduring talents of one of America’s most beloved authors. “From
