Westerns

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..
