From the Inside Flap:

Two men. One woman. A land that demanded courage--or death...

From the Back Cover:

He was a big man, wide-shouldered, with the lean, hard-boned face of the desert rider. His toughness was ingrained, quick, hard and dangerous--yet without cruelty. The wells of gentleness in him were carefully guarded. He was Hondo Lane, a man not soon forgotten by those he encountered on the danger trail.Hondo is a classic Louis L'Amour novel as well as a motion picture starring John Wayne.
