Louis L'Amour takes yu back into time with these classic stories of the Wild Wild West. You can almost feel the hat and see the dust swirl on the towns as he live the live on The Trail to Crazyman, ride along with the Riders of the Dawn and experience a Showdown on the Hogback.

These are the original magazine versions of stories which later were expanded into fullsize movels. Personally I like having them in convenient short lengths.
