Ride the dusty trails of the Old West in eighteen hard-riding tales pulled from the golden age of the pulps. Gunfighters, cowpunchers, pony express riders, prospectors, and range-war veterans come alive on every page, their fortunes turning on a sudden draw, a cold camp, or a glance across a crowded saloon.
From a drifter on the dodge running one jump ahead of the law, to a lonely rider strung out across the sage on a killing errand, these stories capture the frontier as readers first met it-vivid, violent, and honest about the cost of survival. Rustlers circle the herd by moonlight. A greenhorn learns that courage and a six-shooter don't always travel together. Old feuds ripen into gunsmoke beneath a pitiless sun.
Collected here for the first time, these adventure yarns deliver the real pulp-era West: lean prose, bigger- than-life heroes, and a horizon that always seems one more ridge away.
