et al Louis L'Amour (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 15, 2005

This compilation of Western tales contains three tales by the finest Western writers who ever lived. In “Canon Walls” by Zane Grey, Smoke Bellew enters a remote Mormon settlement only a jump ahead of a posse. Finding employment as a ranch hand working for a dowager Mormon, Smoke’s life undergoes a transformation and he is able to make her ranch a financial success at the same time falling in love with her wanton daughter, Rebecca. But it is too good to last. The law follows him. “Black Sheep” by Max Brand finds young Mary Valentine, upstart, tomboy and general trouble-maker, seeking to protect a man wanted by the law. To complicate her life even further, her two cousins, who have been dodging the law, return home and decide with their father to join the notorious Markle gang in holding up the local bank. In the "Sixth Shotgun" by Louis L’Amour Leo Carver is about to be hung. Only problem is that a lot of folks are indebted to Leo for one thing or another.

Dramatically narrated by Grover Gardner, Tales From The Old West features short stories from renowned and enduringly popular western writers Louis L'Amour, Zane Grey, and Max Brand, all of which are flawless and expertly recorded in the studios of Blackstone Audio. Included is the tale of "Canon Walls" from Grey, "Black Sheep" by Brand, and "The Sixth Shotgun" by L'Amour. Tales From The Old West is especially noteworthy for the inclusion of each individual and unabridged story's background. Perfect for western action/adventure buffs as well as for introducing a new generation of listeners to the storytelling skills of three masters of the genre, Tales From The Old West is very highly recommended for personal, school, and community library audiobook collections.
