Step into the rugged world of the American West, where lawmen, outlaws, dreamers, and drifters clash under the wide-open sky. This powerful collection brings together acclaimed favorites-including a Spur Award-winning story-in tales filled with danger, grit, and unexpected humor.
Inside you'll find:
Owlhoots and Outlaws: Two dangerous men plot revenge against a woman from their past.
The Gunman and the Cats: A hardened shooter faces his most unlikely challenge yet-a passel of ornery felines.
Art on the Frontier: An emerging artist threatens the delicate balance of a rough Wyoming camp.
The DaVinci Kid: A young inventor, inspired by Thomas Edison and Sherlock Holmes, brings science and wit to the Old West.
These stories celebrate both the myth and the reality of frontier life-tales where justice is hard-won, courage is tested, and humor shines through the dust and gun smoke.
Readers praise these Westerns as distinguished by humor, irony, crisp language use, and a vivid sense of setting (John D. Nesbitt, Death at Cantera).
If you love classic Western short stories packed with action, character, and surprise, saddle up and ride into this unforgettable collection today.
