A PRIZED COLLECTION OF AMERICAN FICTION — FROM AMERICA’S
FAVORITE STORYTELLERThis first-rate collection of short stories by
the incomparable Louis L’Amour showcases the legendary writer at
his very best: spinning a fascinating and wholly authentic set of
unforgettable tales. In these extraordinary stories, we meet a man
who is forced to defend himself by taking another’s life — and
must pay for his actions in a most punishing manner; a young
thrill-seeker who finally finds a place he can call home, and vows
to stay there — regardless of the man who tries to stand in his
way; and a drifter who honors a deathbed promise to a stranger by
embarking on an unlikely mission of mercy.Complete with revealing
author’s notes, the stories in Law of the Desert Born are
historically precise, and filled with L’Amour’s trademark humor and
adventure. They are nothing less than modern classics of the
American West, told by one of the most beloved storytellers of our
time.
