The fury of the Wild West explodes in this thrilling collection of classic Louis L'Amour short stories. Most folks would call Kim Sartain an easygoing, peace-loving man. But the few who crossed the young drifter knew there was nothing he liked better than a good fight. When cattleman Jim Targ challenges Sartain's right to ride across an unclaimed stretch of meadow, Sartain decides he'll do better than ride through: He'll put down stakes there and homestead the land. Soon there's more at risk than land and pride when Targ hires a gunman to teach Sartain a permanent--and deadly--lesson.

Louis L'Amour's 115 title-plus bibliography is astonishing on its own; even more so given the fact that his writing career did not start in earnest until his 40s. Simply being prolific, however, does not a bestselling author make. L'Amour's Western stories, as written by a real-life adventurer, capture the survivalism and code of honor on which the American frontier mythology rests.
Our foremost storyteller of the authentic West, Louis L'Amour has thrilled a nation by chronicling the adventures of the brave men and women who settled the American frontier. There are more than 260 million copies of his books in print around the world.
Here's another entry in this justifiably popular series. Like the previous entries, Grub Line Rider features believable background sounds and appropriate musical punctuation. The cast was apparently chosen by an expert, with professional actors perfectly selected for believable vocal characterizations. The story itself is a routine tale of a tough and fearless young man confronting tough and fearless bad guys who want to take over unused grazing land from a rancher who happens to have a pretty daughter. Here we have a story that sounds better than it reads, and the overall effect is like the finest of old-time radio. D.W. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
