This review is from: Guns of the West (Paperback)

This is a very fine collection of short stories, some by well-known authors, some by newcomers to the western genre. As with many of these collections, this book has a theme- in this case the firearms used to subdue the West. In capable hands, the short story is a very effective form, and this is well illustrated in this volume.I recommend it highly.
