This is a collection of stories that Louis L'Amour wrote over the years. Some of them were previously published and some were never published.

This book has detailed animated short stories. Very adventurous. It gave me motivation to go through the day. The characters that Louis Lamour writes about are very rough around the edges, heroic! It's a blast to read!
