Summary

Louis L'Amour was the most decorated author in the history of American literature. He was the first author to be awarded a Special National Gold Medal by the U.S. Congress for lifetime literary achievement, and in 1984, President Reagan awarded him the Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the nation. Now collected for the first time in a single book are several of Louis L'Amour's finest Western stories the way L'Amour wrote them. At the time Mr. L'Amour was writing, it was common practice for editors to rewrite the manuscript to fit certain publishing criteria. The text of The Strong Land has been restored, and the stories within it appear as L'Amour intended for them to be read. Whether you're new to the thrilling frontier fiction of Louis L'Amour or one of his legions of fans, these six short stories will assure you that you are in the hands of a master storyteller
